Renames and moves media files for Emby

Requires FileBot for polling TheTVDB and TheMovieDB. This, in turn, requires Java 8. We will be including this in our releases.

These scripts are intended to be run as regular cron jobs, watching a particular directory for new media, then processing them and moving them to an appropriate location in Emby's library.

Name Formats

The NAME_FORMAT variable in each script uses the Filebot naming scheme to properly format the specific path and name of the file.

By default, TV shows are named as follows: "{n}{'/Season '+s}/{n} {s00e00}". Using the Firefly pilot as an example, this would translate to "Firefly/Season 1/Firefly S01E01".

Movies are named as follows: "{genres[0]}/{n} ({y})". Using Serenity as an example, this would translate to "Science Fiction/Serenity (2005)".

Both of these formats are well-received by Emby.
