Version 1.5.18

- Added a missing reset of maxNumber in cChannels::Renumber() (reported by Sundararaj
  Reel).
- Revoked the fixed change of the default character set for SI data and introduced
  an environment variable to control it (thanks to Ales Jurik for reporting broken
  SI data on the Czech/Slovak channels, which actually do follow the standard).
  Users who want to set the default character set to something different can do this
  by setting the environment variable VDR_CHARSET_OVERRIDE to something like
  ISO-8859-9.
- Fixed a signed character used as index in cBase64Encoder::NextLine() (thanks
  to Tobias Grimm).
- Updated the Spanish and Catalanian OSD texts (thanks to Luca Olivetti).
- Fixed automatically selecting the preferred subtitle language (based on a patch
  from Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Ukrainian OSD texts (thanks to Yarema Aka Knedlyk).
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Updated the Polish OSD texts (thanks to Michael Rakowski).
- Fixed formatting the name section in the VDR man pages (thanks to Tobias Grimm).
- Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Magnus Andersson).
- Added Russian translations to the 'skincurses' and 'pictures' plugins (thanks
  to Alexander Gross).
- Fixed displaying the free disk space when entering the recordings menu where the
  last replayed recording was in a subdirectory, and pressing Back (thanks to Rolf
  Ahrenberg).
- Fixed tuning to a live channel after a recording has been stopped using the
  'Back' key.
- Resetting a timer's 'pending' flag when it has ended.
