#3662: MediaMonitor may want to ignore some devices

My frontend does not contain a hard drive. Instead, it boots from a flash
drive and mounts / via NFS. The flash drive also contains the /usr
partition which is mounted read only. When MythTV starts up, the media
monitor detects that there is a removable device inserted and displays
it's partitions in MythGallery. I find that annoying having to press
escape multiple times to get to the main menu.
I can't just disable /dev/sda in udev because I need to be able to
actually access the device to mount /usr. I also don't want to disable
media monitor globally because I still want auto detection of optical
media, SD cards, etc. There needs to be a way to tell the media monitor
to ignore select devices.
This patch adds support for a new setting called IgnoreDevices which can
contain a comma separated list of devices to be ignored by
MediaMonitorUnix. The devices are specified in sysfs form, e.g.
"/sys/block/sda".
