#10135: Add a command line option to start the frontend in a jumppoint

This patch adds 2 options to the frontend, --jumppoint and --runplugin.
You can pass the full name of a jumppoint and the frontend will start
there after loading, for example `mythfrontend --jumppoint "TV Recording
Playback"`. --runplugin works the same as the old way of passing the name
of the plugin as the last option, `mythfrontend --runplugin weather`.
After discussing with sphery and wagnerrp on IRC, this patch removes the
ability to symlink mythfrontend to the name of a plugin and it removes the
ability to pass the name of a plugin as the last option, in favor of
--runplugin. Additionally, it fixes a bug introduced in [b0165b23], which
switched the logic on run_plugin(), which would cause the frontend to
lockup if it was passed the name of a nonexistent plugin.
