Player engine

[rkohser]

• Need to integrate vlc to gustaf.
• In the future, possibiltiy of an abstraction allowing the use of other players.
• Integration of the telnet interface of vlc to know the playback status and fill the database with the played/not played/position information ofr each file.
• Dedicated websocket for the player

Creation of a player module, with a VLC starter.

• VLC started with the future playlist
• VLC started with the telnet interface enabled
• VLCClient started parallel in a new thread to monitor playback status (get_time request)
• VLC started at the last known position if media considered not seen entirely yet

Still to do

• Query status and filename and other useful info before querying time
• Manage the progress bar and the status message
• Allow only one vlc instance
• Create play method to play a playlist
• Organize information exchange with the Websockets. Use of a JSON structure.
