New description:

 The attached patch does two things:

  * Adds a "Start Now" option if an upcoming recording is scheduled to
 start within 2 hours.  Among other things, this is useful for sports
 events where one might want to start watching the pre-game early  without
 adding a specific hard-coded "start early" time.
  * Cleans up the "Stop Recording" and "Change Ending Time" display logic.
 I've run into multiple cases where a recording is in progress, but it is
 impossible to stop or change it.  This generally happens in corner cases
 involving category extending and pre or post roll. This change keys the
 display of these options solely on the rsRecording status.
