Add an exit function. This function will allow performing clean-up operations. (MPlayer calls guiDone() before exiting, but only if the GUI has been initialized, i.e. if guiInit() has been called successfully. Any exit_player()/exit_player_with_rc() after GUI's cfg_read() until guiInit(), or any exit_player() during guiInit() itself will end the GUI without calling guiDone(). This exit function will at least handle abortions during guiInit() itself. It will be called twice in case of an guiExit() after GUI initialization - first directly, next by guiDone() via MPlayer's exit_player_with_rc().)
