 The setting WatchTVGuide ("Show the program guide when starting Live TV")
 leads to a lot of unnecessary complication in the code base.  The
 intention here is simplify by decoupling the starting of the Guide and
 Live TV, while providing a mostly equivalent experience for those who
 prefer starting with the Guide.

 1. Remove the WatchTVGuide setting.

 2. Promote the Schedule Recordings menu item (i.e., Program Guide) to the
 top-level mainmenu.xml.

 3. Allow the top-level guide starting channel to be automatically selected
 as the channel that would be tuned if Live TV were started instead.

 4. Optionally, change the DefaultTVChannel setting to be per channel group
 instead of global.
