 I have a crappy cable STB which has no power on/of IR code, just a power
 toggle. To get around this problem I have been using the rec pending & rec
 finished system events to execute a script that turns the STB on before a
 recording stops and off after it ends. This works well for standard
 recordings, but causes issues in a live TV situation as it tries to turn
 the STB off while changing channels.

 To work around this problem I was using the LiveTV start event to know
 when to ignore record start/end events, but I needed a LiveTV end event to
 ensure the STB was powered off when exiting live TV mode. This patch adds
 that event.
