[python] track the open state of the progress dialog, as the open event is sent on-thread, whereas close is sent via a threadmessage. Two progress dialogs in a row thus won't show up if the close of the first occurs after (due to threadmessaging being delayed) the open of the second. Fixes #13467
CApplicationMessenger::ActivateWindow() can call back into python, so make sure we use the DelayedCallGuard. Fixes #13776.
[videodb] don't wrap ImportXML in a transaction - it uses the infoscanner which has it's own instance with it's own transactions. Fixes #13818
[infoscanner] don't read into archives when looking for trailers
[infoscanner] don't do a CDirectory::Exists() check when we set a path hash to empty - it's expensive for some VFS filesystems, and it doesn't matter if we add non-existent paths to the database (should SetPathHash ever be called on a non-existent path)
[infoscanner] don't invalidate paths whenever DeleteMovie() is done if all we're doing is updating details in-place
