 The attached patch expands the list of storage groups excluded in the disk
 space reporting (as originally introduced in [19695] ).  The patch simply
 excludes every storage group specified in StorageGroup::kSpecialGroups .
 With the proliferation of special groups (LiveTV, DB Backups, Videos,
 Trailers, Coverart, Fanart, Screenshots, Banners), the status page can
 become quite a mess (and its total misleading) without the patch.

 Note that this is still a bit of a hack.  A better approach would rely on
 storage group types, but until that's implemented, this approach works
 since all currently-existing special storage groups are non-TV groups.

 I did not use a prepared statement to include the list of group names in
 the query since doing so would require dynamically adding placeholders (as
 each placeholder is treated as a single element, so it's impossible to add
 a list with a single placeholder).  Currently this works fine since none
 of the special groups have single quotes (or other database-special
 characters).  If that changes in the future, this code will have to be
 changed.  If you'd prefer the prepared statement approach, please let me
 know.
