Context-sensitive ESCAPE action during DVD playback

Description

This patch slightly changes the behavior of the ESCAPE key during DVD playback. If playback is not in a DVD menu, it tries to jump to the title or root menu instead of exiting the player.

Minor improvements could possibly be made, such as cleaning up OSD anomalies, and maybe directly exiting if ESCAPE is pressed during the first 1 or 2 seconds of playback.

Thanks to Friedrich Clause on the users list for expressing the same idea I was starting to have.

Updated with Mike Dean's suggestion: add a TV Playback/BACK keybinding that can be used instead of ESCAPE so that the user can control whether they actually want this behavior.

(In [26089]) Add an additional keybinding to exit to the DVD menu, rather than exiting playback, and implement the associated behaviour. Closes #8822 with patch from Jim Stichnoth.
