VLCFullscreenMovieTVViewController: Refactor IR remote gestures

This merge request brings a change to the gestures of the AppleTV's IR remotes:

  • Short pressing the left arrow button will perform a backward seek of 10 seconds.
  • Short pressing the right arrow button will perform a forward seek of 10 seconds.

Long press gesture recognizers have been added to the arrow buttons in order to change the playback rate:

  • Long pressing the right arrow button once will increase the playback rate to 2.0x.
  • Long pressing the right arrow button a second time will increase the playback rate to 4.0x.

Since attributing a negative playback rate is not supported, long pressing the left arrow button will reset the playback rate to its previous state.

Long pressing the left arrow button when the playback rate is equal to its default value, will not have any impact on the playback rate.

The short pressing arrow buttons' action remain active when the playback rate has been increased.
