Comment:

 Move main system event sender helper routine to MythCoreContext.

 This will allow any code with access to MythCoreContext via
 the global gCoreContext to be able to send a MythSystemEvent.
 This includes plugins and libmythbase.

 Instead of this:

     #include "mythsystemevent.h"

     SendMythSystemEvent("blah");

 callers can now do this:

     gCoreContext->SendSystemEvent("blah");

 Rather than replicating the code in RemoteSendMessage() inside
 MythCoreContext, RemoteSendMessage() has been moved into MythCoreContext
 as MythCoreContext::SendMessage().  Ditto for RemoteSendEvent()
 moving to MythCoreContext::SendEvent().  Both of these were no longer
 true 'Remote' methods since they send the message or event locally when
 run from the mythbackend application.

 Fixes #9394.

 NOTE: This commit modifies the binary API verison, so make clean, etc..
