Describe the bug

Getting the following error when attempting to run ytmusic.get_library_upload_songs(...)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mark/workspace/ytmusic/./music.py", line 22, in <module>
    uploads = ytmusic.get_library_upload_songs(

               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
KeyError: 'menuNavigationItemRenderer'

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

from ytmusicapi import YTMusic

ytmusic = YTMusic("oauth.json")
uploads = ytmusic.get_library_upload_songs(
        order="recently_added",
        limit=500,
)

Additional context
Just to make sure, I updated my version to 1.1.1, but unfortunately that didn't fix the issue. Wondering if YouTube changed their API surface on uploads.

Hi, this seems to be a Google A/B test currently, so your quick fix won't do it. For me it's failing with this change, while it works on current master.

Aaaah, I had a wonder.

So will need to redo it as a search rather than a specified number. Sounds like that would be a better option long term anyway.

I've been running my locally edited version, and it's been fine - but as you said, looks like I'm in an A/B, in which case if you want to close this PR, please feel free.

If I run into it again, I'll redo it to make it a search based implementation, so it's future proof (or at least as close as it can be).
