Support for latest media items

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Provide an interface (e.g. ILatestMediaProvider) so sites can publish a list of 
latest items. 

This can be used by e.g. LatestMediaHandler to provide similar functionality 
like "latests movies" and "latest episodes".

And maybe the Infoservice plugin can incorporate that info?

My major problem with this feature is this:
In order to have that info available at MediaPortal start, I would have to do 
all the stuff that normally happens when the Plugin is called the first time 
(e.g. AutoUpdate) on MP startup in a background thread. There quite a few 
things to take care of then, which is not easy.

The first step is taken: Separate AppDomain for all SiteUtils.
Now working on the configuration options and a new abstract base class for this 
feature.

I just committed this feature:
https://code.google.com/p/mp-onlinevideos2/source/detail?r=1623

Attached is a mod for the DefaultWide skin that will show those latets videos 
in the Basic Home screen when selecting "Videos" (MovingPictures or 
LatestMediaHandler should be disabled or not installed).
