Update stats in the input threads instead of playlist thread

Todo: we should recheck cache just before downloading in case it has been downloaded while we were in the queue

Compile fix

 * Secondary queue items now have a b_fetch_art flag
 * You can use the playlist_AskForArtEnqueue function to ask for art from an interface. This will enqueue at the begining of the secondary queue
 * other stuff which i don't remember :)
 * (fix issues with previous (and unrelated) DIR_SEP commit)

* Put meta related functions in src/input/meta.c
* Merge vlc_meta_engine.h and vlc_meta.h

Album art stuff is still broken, but I need to go now :)

* meta reader : read directly from the file, should be made from the demux.
  Examples: taglib, id3tag
* meta fetcher : use web services to get meta, either from the current ones.
  Called only if we don't have the tags after using the meta readers
* art finder : find the URL of the suitable album art. Called according to the
  art policy
* art downloader : used to retrieve the art from special locations. Not needed
  if art is available directly from an URL.
  Examples: APIC ID3 tag reader

Add input_ItemAddOptionNoDup (unused at the moment)
+ free warning fix

Add an "album art download policy" (--album-art) option. I now have to do another commit to enfore this policy (album art isn't downloaded at all atm)

Start of meta engine stuff. src/input/input.c needs to be fixed a bit. I'll finish it today. @zorglub: now you have to use the psz_arturl meta to display stuff in the interface.

Fix a debug message

Also, make it clearer what is shared and instance-specific

So,
libvlc_t ==> libvlc_global_t
vlc_t ==> libvlc_int_t (internal instance)

p_object->p_libvlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc_globale
p_object->p_vlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc

VLC_OBJECT_VLC ==> VLC_OBJECT_LIBVLC

And by the way, there is some cleanup required :) (ie, some things are created in the global object instead of the instance-specific one)

Remove the "seeking too far" error, as it happens for broken AVI and is quite confusing

To be backported, but will need some manual merging (diff in vlc-devel should apply pristine to 0.8.5).
Thanks to Georgi Chorbadzhiyski for the patch

It is now based on a shuffled array of items, so that next + prev takes you back to what you were playing

* Start putting together all interface strings (Refs:#703)
