Autobookmarking (Multi File Resume)

---

This patch creates the ability to autobookmark a file
when stopping that file with the OFF button. The code
takes the existing resume information and stores that to
a file based off of the file name (foo.mp3 creates a file
called foo.mp3.resume). Each time an MP3/M3U is
played, the code will check for the the existence of the
above file and, if found, will prompt the user to load the
bookmark.

Bookmarking.

---

This patch has the preliminary bookmarking capability.
It can make a bookmark file with multiple bookmarks,
but will only load the first bookmark in the file. This will
be addressed in the next release of the patch (once I
figure out how to do menus!).

Know Issues/TBDs

---

1. For some reason, bookmarks will occasionally fail to 

load.

       
2. Need to create a menu when selecting a bookmark 

file what will let the user choose which bookmark within
that file they want to play. Currently this loads the first
bookmark in the bmark file.

3. Manual bookmarks work, but only for MP3s.  For 

some reason, if attempting to bookmark a playlist, the
bookmark is created correctly, but the RockBox starts
playing at the last resume point.

4. Develop own better play capability.  
   FIX NOTE: 
      I have duplicated the code for play_resume() 

without the ask_resume() calls. Again, this is not the
best way to do this, but my knowledge of how to
actually play is lacking, so I haven’t developed a more
robust method

5. Need to use the language files.
   FIX NOTE: 
      I've tried to use #define as much as possible, so it 

should be trivial to use the LANG files.

6. Bookmark files are created, but they don't show up 

until the next time the directory is loaded.

7. Need to come up with an icon for bookmark and 

resume files

8. Need to store the autobookmark settings.  They will 

be restored to the defaults each time the RockBox is
turned on.
