mediaplugin: Change the default mode to use a persistent database
The database is now written to the application's cache folder
and is reused on the next start of the application. The indexer
will now also use the systems music folder by default.
The non persistent database can be enabled by setting the
QTIVIMEDIA_TEMPORARY_DATABASE environment variable.
