[TOOLS] Subtitlefs

So you like watch foreign films. And think that matroska's embedded subtitle support is the greatest thing since sliced bread. However, you're disappointed that serviio doesn't support embedded subtitles. Introducing subtitlefs.

Subtitlefs is a fuse filesystem that will show a subtitle file next to the video file (currently only matroska) that contains it. The virtual subtitle file will have the same name as the video file up to the extension and the extension will be the extension for the subtitle format. It currently requires python-fuse and mkvtoolnix. Now you shouldn't need to be concerned with dumping subtitle files from your video files.

I've not tested on windows, but assuming you get the requirements setup, it should work (ie. no unix only modules). Patches and bug fixes welcome.

Love the idea :)
I would probably be running into huge trouble though. Getting MKVtoolnix to run on an ARM-based NAS is quite tough I believe.
