[mythtvnz] Skystar2 remote support?

[Nick Rout]

I have one, it came with a little serial connected module that I believe
works with lirc_serial. The remote's lircd.conf  is featured on the lirc
website.

http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/technisat/TTS35AI

As lirc_serial is very broken in the latest knoppmyth  I never actually
got it fully working. Instead I have bought a mceusb2 microsoft usb
remote that "just works". Excellent stuff from the enemy :-)
