Add ability to browse and watch Apple movie trailers

There are many movie trailers available to watch at the Apple website. The website would be complex to parse for video links but there is a XML feed at http://www.apple.com/trailers/home/xml/current.xml which contains details of all the latest trailers. This could be easily parsed for details and links to the trailers.

(In revision:1286) Added ability to browse/search Apple movie trailers.

The popular RSS and XML feeds that other Apple movie trailer apps use were found to contain only a limited number of recent trailers. We use the JSON requests that are used at http://www.apple.com/trailers/. If the trailer can be browsed/searched for at the site then it is also available in SwissCenter.

(In revision:1291) Added 'Weekend Box Office' and 'Opening this Week' options to Apple movie trailers. If a movie has multiple trailers then they are all now available to watch.

Retrieval of trailer details is improved to handle inconsistent naming conventions used by iTunes. This fixes 'Halloween 2' and other movie titles containing accented characters.
