 This patch adds metadata lookups to MythWeb similar to how they function
 in the front end.  The new features are:[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 1. Metadata Lookup Button on Recording Schedule screen
 The recording schedule screen now has a "Look up Metdata" button next to
 the inetref field under advanced.  If you click this button a call is made
 to the backend to lookup metdata for whatever data is available on the
 screen (title, subtitle, inetref, episode, season).  If no results are
 found a dialog is displayed.  If one result is found the inetref, season
 and episode fields are updated.  If multiple results are found a dialog is
 displayed that shows the various shows a user can choose.  When the user
 selects one, the inetref, season and episode are updated.  In addition if
 a "home page" field is found then a link is added under the "More" field
 with a link to the metdata home page (e.g. the season and episode of a TV
 show).[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 2. Recording Detail Screen
 After the user hits the Recording Detail screen an ajax call is made to
 the back end to see if there is a metadata home page for this recording.
 If so a link is added after the inetref field[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 This patch includes a minor change to the MythBackend PHP bindings
 (syntactic sugar for making JSON calls a little easier) and the bulk of
 the changes to mythweb.  It does not include the translation changes for
 mythweb.[[BR]]

 Thanks! [[BR]]
