[mythtv] [mythmusic] [PATCH] Improved node sorting

Hi all!

Finally, I had the time to make the tree node sorting patch. (It took
some time to do, since it had to be optimized quite a bit, in order to
sort large music collections fast.)

This is what it contains/does:

* There's a new text-field on the configuration screen, where the
  end user *can* enter a number of words separated with space.
  (This would usually be words like "the" (English), or "la" (French),
etc.)
  
  If a tree node begins with one of these words, the word will
  be ignored in the tree building & node sorting process. (Thus, the
  band "The Doors" will be found under "D" in the lists.)

* The general configuration screens are rearranged a bit,
  in order to make space for the new text-field.

The patch also contains a few minor speed improvements, and code
clean-ups in metadata.o.

Hope to see it on the commit-list soon. :-)


Cheers,

~Morten Egelund Rasmussen
