Description

Some channels I subscribe to upload multiple videos a day. When I play the newest video the next on the queue is usually from a totally different channel. So what I used to do in YouTube was go to their channel and click the Videos section and there's a Play All button. This would play their videos from the latest to the oldest so I don't have to go back after every video and look for the next one to play.

Research direction
Locate the channel video list component in the FreeTube codebase (likely in a Vue component). Investigate how video playlists are generated and how the current queue system works. Look for any existing 'Play All' functionality elsewhere in the app for reference. Discuss with maintainers on the issue #629 for design guidance and to ensure the implementation aligns with project goals.
