#168 Support for Sony BD J5500

The Sony BD J5500 player does not accept some of the DLNA_PN values used by minidlna for *.mp4 files.

For instance AVC_MP4_MP_HD_720p_AAC and AVC_MP4_BL_L31_HD_AAC are problematic as the player would simply ignore the files and not show them.

AVC_MP4_HP_HD_AAC works.

All the files play normally from a USB key.

I've noticed as well that NULL works always, and this is the approach I have followed.

So I changed minidlna and added a flag to disable DLNA_PN, and this flag is only used for a Samsung BD J5500 in order not to break other players, which can handle DLNA_PN properly.

So when a J5500 is connected we simply set DLNA_PN to NULL and everything work well.
