#1999: 'Info' button brings up menus for editing

Severity: medium |
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
A general gripe about the handling of the 'info' button - too many lines
which state:
else if (action == "INFO")
edit();
I find this inconsistent with what I'd expect - 'INFO' should provide
information (as 'DETAILS' currently does). In almost all cases the 'MENU'
button isn't doing much useful (eg skipping back to the root) or is
performing exactly the same function as the 'INFO' button.
This patch creates a new 'PROGINFO' button (named from the dialog - I'd
probably have named it to reflect its editing function as shown above, but
this is stated in the description). 'PROGINFO' defaults to 'I' and carries
out the function of 'INFO' in settings where, as above, 'INFO' actually
sets up an edit.
The patch maps the 'INFO' button to behave like 'DETAILS' - in fact the
two become synonymous but I have not removed 'DETAILS' to avoid breakage.
As the patch defaults 'PROGINFO' to 'I' this will not change the default
behaviour of mythtv but allows people to select a setup like mine which
was not previously possible.
