 Current, sort by title falls back to programid on title match.  This patch
 does a few things:
  * Title matches first fall-back to subtitle, then programid (subtitles
 sorted same as title.  Leadings The/A/An in subtitle are NOT ignored)
  * Adds a new sort order: sort by program ID (since I see the appeal)

 Unfortunately, the new sort order suffers from a few flaws.  That it, it
 works without a program as far as I can tell.  However:
  1. It does not show up in the list of sort orders on main screen (will
 show in pop-up).  The sort orders is part of the theme and is shared in
 multiple places.  Not clear to me how to change it without causing
 problems.
  2. The next keypress is "3".  Unfortunately, this dialog box is
 interpreted in "TV Frontend", which, by default, masks 3 to "Page Up".
 Can easily move to "4" or "0" (or other digit that's not "9"), but that
 breaks the old selection scheme.

 Not happy with any of the choices I see on these two issuse, I punt,
 hoping the answer will be obvious to someone more in-tune with mythtv's UI
 (such as bjm).  Sorry.
