 This ticket is just here to collect patches and feedback as we make the
 discussed changes to how themes are handled.

  * Introduce the concept of the themeinfo.xml which describes a theme. The
 themeinfo.xml will be read by both mythtv and in future by software on a
 theme repository website

  * Theme versioning. This will allow users can to know which 3rd party
 themes will work with the latest version of mythtv.

  * Host themes as separate packages on mythtv.org and create a theme
 management interface to allow users to browse available themes, download
 and automatically install. Possibly support automatic themes updates or
 notification of available updates.
