Miscellaneous MythVideo Storage Group Fixes/Improvements

Description

This patch adds support for the remotefile write capability, allowing MythVideo? to download metadata images straight into the Coverart/Fanart/Banner? storage groups. This takes us fairly close to the point where we can eliminate the local mounts for coverart/fanart/screenshot/etc. in MythVideo?.

Unfortunately the patch exposes a bug elsewhere in MythVideo? that I have not yet been able to track down. When fanart/banner/coverart are downloaded, all the correct files end up in the correct storage group. For some reason, however, MythVideo? can load the wrong image in as the wrong imagetype. ie, the file downloaded for coverart ends up displaying as the fanart. Note that the file download works properly. Clearing the frontend themecache and going back to the image loads all the correct images. This appears to be a bug with either image caching or somewhere else in MythVideo?. I'd love any assistance with tracking this one down.

New patch adds a few other Storage Group in MythVideo? related fixes. Can now download all the following to Storage Groups: Fanart, Coverart, Banner, and (newly implemented) Screenshots. This also adds support for deleting Videos from the UI. It also fixes bug #6068 (segfault on delete) by invalidating the tree before refreshing the view (calling reloaddata instead of refreshdata). It also fixes scanning when there is also a local setting for Mythvideo files, so that it will prefer the Storage Group and bypass the local mount (preventing duplicate scans and still allowing the media to be locally mounted).

(In [21206]) Refs #6819, Change video scan behavior to prefer Storage Groups when they exist, and to not scan local mounts when they do. Fixes obnoxious behavior where a local mount and SG exist and you end up with two records after a scan. Also prevents the (useless) 'Video Home' node from showing up.

(In [21246]) Fixes #6068. Refs #6819. Fix deletes in MythVideo?. Deletes will now work for both storage group and local mount configurations, with one caveat on each. We must still reload the tree on local deletes, otherwise when the last item in a folder is removed and you back out of it, a segfault occurs. For Storage Group deletes, one needs to leave mythvideo and allow the cache to die (as with scanning) for the change to 'take.'
