Comment:

 (In [15091]) Allow MythMusic to continue playing in the background after
 exiting.

 When you exit the MythMusic playback screen you are given the option to
 exit
 and stop playing or exit and continue playing. If you choose to continue
 playing you can then use other parts of Myth while your music is still
 playing.

 When a new track starts and you are not in the main music playback screen
 a
 mini popup player is shown for a few seconds then disappears. While the
 mini
 player is on screen you can press ESCAPE to remove it or press SELECT and
 it
 will stay on screen until you press ESCAPE. There is also a new jump point
 (not bound to anything by default) that will instantly show the mini
 player
 anywhere in Myth. While the miniplayer is on screen you can use most of
 the
 key bindings available in the main playback screen to change tracks, fast
 forward, rewind, pause, stop, mute the audio, increase/decrease the volume
 etc. Like other part of Myth the miniplayer is fully themeable.

 Thanks to Otto, Mike, Benoit, Robin, Bill and anyone else I may have
 forgot
 for testing and providing some feed back.

 Note to testers: I changed the name of the jump point to "Show Music
 Miniplayer"
 so you will have to remove the binding on the old jump point and set it
 again
 on the new one.

 Closes #4222.
