Work around #551 for DVB recordings by implementing device ringbuffer.

 This involves cleaning up the device ringbuffer implemented in
 HDTVRecorder and then bolting it onto DVBRecorder. This should allow you
 to format a partition on the same disk as your recordings without losing
 any data provided you have enough memory. I had planned to do this in
 0.20, but now that the scheduler runs more often it ruins too many
 recordings to be acceptable. This won't help with PVR-x50 recordings
 thrashed by #551, but I'll let someone else worry about that.
