Screensavers should exit on any touch or IR signal always

See the thread
In a call with Dean, he clarified for me that he really wants it that when the NP SS kicks in (even if NP isn't currently up), it really doesn't bring up a SS, instead it just brings regular NP (non-SS mode) to the screen and resets the SS timer. His comments where that later when the visualizer mode comes in there will be actually SS style interaction to "leave", but in this case (NP) the user can always just click back to get where there were before. According to Dean, this may be a good thing for controller as well, and time will tell. So, I'll preserve the old NP SS pathways, and just shortcircuit to a pushAction("go_now_playing") when the NP SS would normally be engaged.
fixed in r5687 when NP SS kicks in, it just brings up regular NP, no longer a special SS mode. So, to go back, just use the back button. When we work on the remote mode more fully, this behavior for remote mode may be different.
