broadcast: limit number of requests sent to YouTube

To prevent unintended abuse of the YouTube API in the case of a bug producing many requests, we should have a safety feature that limits the request we send to YouTube. We have triggered a temporary block from YouTube twice due to sending too many requests at once.

This should be done in the YouTube API binding layer. It should limit the number of create broadcast requests. Alan suggested we could use a token bucket and we stop when we run out of tokens.
