Move the video scanner into the backend

Description

This ticket is to track the progress of moving the video scanner into the backend.

Initial patch does this with a new mythproto command, SCAN_VIDEOS. Currently, only the scanning and insertion into the database done, I'll want to finish the work of also having metadata grabbing done there (possibly with a discrete proto command as well?) before committing.

As it stands, the mythbackend --scanvideos command isn't working quite right yet, but firing off a SCAN_VIDEOS message to the backend with the bindings seems to work nicely.

When all is said and done, we can probably use this to replace the uPnP media scanner.

Version 2 fixes mythbackend --scanvideos to work properly and some formatting.

I'm not going to track the rest of this with the ticket, the backend can now successfully video scan.
