Default Added support for linked channels e.g. Premiere Direkt Portal

First let me explain this feature.
Some Providers at the moment i only know of Premiere have so called "Portal channels". That means one channel is the main portal channel and offers different movies on a pay per view basis.
The movies are broadcasted on different channels which don't have names.
This feature grabs the correct linked channels for this portal and makes them available via the context menu.
If you timeshift a channel which sends linkage data it is grabbed right after tuning and stored in the database.
If you then timeshift a portal channel such as "Premiere Direkt" you get a new context menu entry "linked channels" which contains all linked channels with their correct names. By selecting one channel you can zap to it.
This is a test phase at the moment so all feedback is very welcome
The next step will be to have the context menu popup if you are tuned to a linked channel also.
