I made it so that an EPG scan can always be done if there is a free
DVB device. This means that if there is only a FF DVB card and a replay
is going on, the receiver part of the DVB card actually can do an EPG scan.

Having Setup.EPGScanTimeout set to 0 should actually inhibit the entire
EPG scan mechanism, because of

   if (Setup.EPGScanTimeout && Channels.MaxNumber() > 1) {

at the beginning of cEITScanner::Process().

e '0' means "no EPG scan at all".
So maybe I should pull the check for Setup.EPGScanTimeout to the front
of this condition.
