Software Management plugin settings can leave Software Management inaccessible
Issue #544
resolved
If the Software Management plugin setting "Show software manager in plugin menu" is enabled, the Software Management entry in the Plugin Browser (PLUGIN from live TV) is removed, but the Software Management plugin isn't accessible any more from the UI.
Replication steps
From live TV, PLUGIN>Software management, MENU.
Then enable "Show software manager in plugin menu".
Save the settings.
Exit back to live TV, Software management is no longer listed in the PLUGINs list, or anywhere else.
It can only be restored by going to the commandline interface, and
init 4
Edit /etc/enigma2/settings to remove config.plugins.softwaremanager.onSetupMenu
init 3

Fix bug
#544: Software Management plugin settings can leave Software Management inaccessibleChange the interaction between the Software Management plugin and GeneralMenu so that:
The Software Manager is always shown in the Plugin Browser (PLUGIN from live TV).
The Software Manager is never shown in the Plugins section of the main menu (MENU in live TV). There are only two spare slots in it on the T4 before it starts to need to scroll. This is unchanged from the current code.
The "Show software manager in plugin menu" option is changed to read "Show software manager in tasks/setup menu", the test in SoftwareManager on displaying it is changed to "id_mainmenu_tasks" so that it inserts itself in the Setup/Tasks submenu of the main menu and the exclusion in the main menu that blocks the Software Manager from appearing in the non-Plugins submenus is removed. I think this is in keeping with the plugin code's intention, to display itself in the main menu submenu with menuID "setup".
The currently working option to have the Software Manager insert itself in the BLUE button Extensions menu is retained.
Allow for information text on all entries in the list, not just for "Overwrite configuration files?"
Add information text to the config list entries for "Overwrite configuration files?", "Show software manager in tasks/setup menu" and "Show software manager on blue button".
