Python/curses interface for mythfrontend control socket

Description

This script was originally posted on IRC some number of months (maybe a year?) ago, so I don't know who to give credit to.

This runs on the command line using curses, so key presses get transmitted directly to the frontend. I've updated it to use the Frontend class in the Python bindings, in place of the telnet library. It will also now autodetect what frontends are available for connection to if none is given on the command line.

Since this is command line only, it is meant to aide setup and maintenance, rather than a full time use app.

Displays some additional information, relying on #6845. Program now requires at least an 80x13 screen.

Adds support for parsing of 'LiveTV' location string. Mutes a couple exceptions when the frontend exits.
