Patch for trunk/plugin.video.free.cable/resources/lib/abc.py

[GoogleCodeExporter]

ABC has taken to enclose some of its video bit rates in quotes. This causes the 
Python int function to generate an exception because it can not convert strings 
to numbers. The Python float function can convert strings to numbers. So, lets 
pass the bitrate to the float function to protect against this behavior. Note 
that the float function can handle both string and numerical inputs so this 
should have no negative impact on previous videos.

Oops, got the filename order reversed. Corrected patch below.
