Log Message:

The "Hey he's not dead, just slow" patch...

* Fixed "Watch Recordings" screen to update Auto-Expire status icon if
    you change auto-expire flag on a recording.  This updates the
    in-memory flag after the DB value is changed rather than having to
    re-retrieve the whole program list from the DB to update.

* Added CommercialFlagger class to handle commercial flagging threads.
    Instead of having the tv_rec.cpp fire off flagging threads, it now sends
    a message to the CommercialFlagger class instance and that fires off the
    threads and keeps track of what threads are running.  This allows flagging
    threads to be started/stopped at will.

* Added menu options on playbackbox screen to start or stop commercial
    flagging for a recording.  Made status icons reflect changes when flagging
    was started/stopped for a recording.

* Removed MARK_PROCESSING flag from use in recordedmarkup table which
    indicated commercial flagging was running.  This was redundant since
    the new commflagged field was added to the recorded table for
    optimization.

* Added code to stop commercial flagging for a recording if it is deleted
    while commercial flagging is in progress.

* Added code to start commercial flagging for a show when the show is stopped
    prematurely by the user but not deleted.

* Moved RecordedMarkup delete code from MainServer::DoHandleDeleteRecording
    into a thread and gave it its own DB connection so it doesn't hold up
    the GUI when deleting large recordings with large numbers of rows in
    the recordedmarkup table.

* Added "CPU Usage" setting on Commercial Skip/Detection page in setup.  User
    can select between "Low" (this is the default and the existing method
    which runs niced and sleeps every frame), "Medium" (which just runs niced
    but doesn't sleep), and "High" (which runs full-throttle, no nice and no
    sleeping)  Included a warning in the description about running on "High".

* Added "Commercial Detection Host" setting to allow user to specify a
    particular backend that all commercial detection should run on.  Defaults
    to "Localhost" which means the detection will run on the backend the
    recording was made on when automatic detection is on.  Settable to the
    hostname of any mythbackend server so you can have a dedicated
    commercial flagging host.

* Modified all Recorder classes to write out only the changes to the
    positionMap map when finished recording instead of rewriting the whole
    map to the DB.  Added ProgramInfo::SetPositionMapDelta() to accomodate.
    This allows recordings (especially long ones) to finish quicker and
    should eliminate some (or all) of the issues with the 2nd of back-to-back
    recordings starting late.
