Version 1.7.0vdr-1.7.0

- Re-implemented handling of DVB-S2, which first appeared in version 1.5.14, but was
  revoked in version 1.5.15 in favor of making a stable version 1.6.0. VDR now
  requires the "multiproto" DVB driver, e.g. from http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto.
  Note that the channels.conf file now supports additional parameters, so you may
  want to make sure you have a backup of this file in case you need to go back to
  the previous version of VDR!
- Fixed displaying transponder data when it is modified (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed handling the counter in detection of pre 1.3.19 PS data (thanks to Reinhard
  Nissl).
- Improved logging system time changes to avoid problems on slow systems under
  heavy load (suggested by Helmut Auer).
- Now setting the thread name, so that it can be seen in 'top -H' (thanks to Rolf
  Ahrenberg).
- Fixed initializing the timer's flags in the cTimer copy constructor (thanks to
  Andreas Mair).
- Fixed setting the OSD level in the 'osddemo' example (thanks to Wolfgang Rohdewald).
- Increased the time between checking the CAM status to 500ms to avoid problems
  with some CAMs (reported by Arthur Konovalov).
