[mythtv] [PATCH] [nuvexport] Patch to allow using ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt

The attached patch makes nuvexport attempt to use the the mysql.txt
file located in the user's ~/.mythtv/ directory if it exists prior
to checking for the global mythtv mysql.txt file.

Since the global mysql.txt gets overwritten everytime you do a "make install",
I utilize myth's ability to use a mysql.txt in my home directory.  It would
be nice if nuvexport could support the same functionality so the attached
patch gives it that ability.
