Show current brightness/volume Setting when in Menu and holding `Menu`, `Start`, or `Select` before pressing volume key #34

One nice thing with how MiniUI works on the Mini is that when changing the brightness or volume by pressing Menu and then holding Start or Select, the OSD would appear first. This was useful because it provided a visual cue of the current level for the setting and also meant you didn't have to worry about accidentally altering the wrong setting.

I know it is incredibly minor, but the latest change to having to hold Menu + the volume key takes away the visual feedback before making the change to brightness.

It would be nice to still have key combinations for changing the volume and brightness that showed the OSD first when within the Menu before the setting is changed.

Playing Devil's Advocate, I'd argue the brightness of the screen or the volume of the device is the feedback necessary to choose to make the adjustment in the first place. However, as the Start and Select buttons don't have any other functions in the menus right now, I'm not strictly against a change like this, though I currently consider this a low priority.

I totally understand. It isn't hard to get the feedback that you entered the wrong button combination and to adjust it back and then use the other possible combination. But, the other nice bit is as a reminder of the shortcut that gets reinforced when in the menu. It is definitely a low-priority for me as a player, but something I noticed with the latest version.

Thanks so much for the project!
