Comment(by paulh):

 (In [16153]) Fix a feature? of the background music player were if an
 external program is
 run like mythbrowser using myth_system() the music will stop at the end of
 the current track and will only resume again when the external program is
 exited.

 To work around this this commit adds an additional flag to myth_system
 that
 allows you to run a command waiting for it to finish but doesn't block the
 parent thread so it can continue dispatching messages etc.

 It also updates MythBrowser and MythNews to call myth_system() with the
 new
 flag and blocks all input while the external program is running.

 Refs #4222.
