13021	Feature patch: Entry to watching livetv from frontend EPG using select action	perkins1724@…	Peter Bennett	"Further to discussion on user list at https://lists.gt.net/mythtv/users/607729

Currently (fixes/0.28), when within the mythfrontend EPG and not currently watching livetv, to enter livetv from the EPG requires the use of the 'menu' action.

I propose to allow the 'select' action to return an option to goto ""Watch This Channel"" when the highlighted program is close enough to the current time.

guidegrid.cpp currently has code that says if the user is browsing far enough away from now while watching livetv and makes a 'select' action that their intent is probably to interact with recording rules rather than change channel. This patch is for a corollary that if the user is browsing close enough to now in the frontend EPG and is not currently in livetv that they probably intend to view that channel rather than interact with the recording rules."
