show log off instead power button #195

Add a skin option to allow showing the log off button instead of the power button on the home screen.

Scenario: On a system with multiple users in a household, this allows people more easily switch between users.

Implementation: Add a new button to the home screen using the back icon. Either show the new button or the power button depending on the value in the skin settings. Add to strings.po the new settings text.

I dont think we need an option for this, you can easily log off by using the shutdown dialog.

Yes you can but that is a bunch of clicks and scrolling to log off and log back on to a different profile. I have 4 profiles for 4 family members (some young children), the Kodi devices are never turned off (pi's) and switching profiles is something people do multiple times a day. This is a better solution for people in the above situation. Not saying everyone should use it but it is a good fit for me and I am guessing people that use profiles like I do.
