#3446: Enhancement: Configurable exit menu

There are several use cases where the default mythfrontend exit menu is
not appropriate:
* Running mythfrontend as an application on a desktop PC, you don't want
to accidentally shut down the machine when quitting, but "Exit & Shutdown"
is always shown on non-backend machines
* Running a dedicated frontend machine, you don't want to accidentally
drop to a desktop when you mean to shut down the machine, but "Exit" is
always shown
* Running a combined BE/FE, you cannot be CERTAIN that you will never want
to shut down (for example, if a thunderstorm starts, you don't want to
leave your machine turned on), but "Exit & Shutdown" is hidden on combined
BE/FE machines.
The attached patch enables a configurable exit menu - the default
behaviour is to proceed using the existing behaviour, and options are
added in the frontend settings to override those choices - allowing
inappropriate options to be shown or hidden to taste.
Trac seems determined to ignore my email address, so if someone feels like
manually setting it to directhex at apebox.org after this ticket is submitted
(and inevitably switched back to anonymous) that would be handy
