 Feature patch:  Utilize --list-channels capability of grabber for channel
 only requests

 For grabbers that specify a preferredmethod of "allatonce" a
 mythfilldatabase request of --only-update-channels can result in a long
 operation of which most of the data may not be of immediate interest.
 Grabbers that define the apiconfig capability also support a --list-
 channels option.  Use --list-channels for --only-update-channels
 operations if the capability exists.

 This patch depends on the the detection of additional capabilities
 introduced in ticket #12706
