FS#11678 - Make the playlist catalog use the normal file browser instead of a custom browser with crappy limits

inspisred by the fact that the playlist cataloge has a file limit http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=25972.0

This patch makes the playlist catalog use the normal file browser code to select and display a m3u[8].
The changes to tree.c are a bit hacky.. Ideally the context should be changed, but i think this is a good start. Also dirbrowse() really could use better return value handling.

i tried this, and it doesn't work at all in Main menu → Playlists → View Catalog.
in Main menu → Playlists → View Catalog:
- it also displayes bookmarks.
- if you simply press left, it just go to above directory instead of returning to Playlist menu.
- it doesn't say "No Playlists" when the playlist directory is empty.
- select playlist → contexet menu → add to playlist doesn't work.
- most_recent_playlist is no longer used.
- undefined reference to printf :).
i fixed these except most_recent_playlist thing.

Thanks. Thinking about it more this morning, this patch is really nothing more than proof-of-concept. It really needs a bit of a dirbrowse()/tree.c rework to do properly.

the most_recent_playlist thing is an interesting one. The quick fix is getting a it from the browsers sort function and only use it when in this catalog browser. Or the proper way makes dirbrowse() *far* more complicated by passing in a sort callback, an action handler callback, and some way to get a better return value than the GO_TO_* values (we really want to know if the user canceled the screen, or exited because they loaded a file)

Or alternativly, we could ignore the sorting problem and just add another playlist catalog menu item, so along side "add to new playlist" and "add to playlist" we can have "add to: <last playlist name>" which would solve that issue and be the same amount of key presses

as for the most_recent_playlist thing, another option is selecting the last playlist by default when enter the playlist catalog similer to Fonts,WPS, etc. setting menus.

thats a much better idea than a new menu option :p
I'd almost say commit it but I tihnk it needs to wait till the release happens :/
