Inconsistent use of defaults

[Gabriel Burca]

Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
MediaTomb version: 0.12.1-47-g7ab7616-1ubuntu2

The contents of /etc/default/mediatomb are used by 3 start-up scripts, but the usage is inconsistent.

/etc/init/mediatomb.conf expects variables NOT to be prefixed with "MT_" (ex: INTERFACE vs MT_INTERFACE).

/etc/init.d/mediatomb expects "MT_" prefixed variables, except for the OPTIONS variable, and ignores the MT_PORT variable.

/lib/systemd/system/mediatomb.service expects "MT_" prefixed variables, ignores the OPTIONS variable, and expect the port to be in the MT_PORT variable.

Since the interface is also specified in the /etc/mediatomb/config.xml file, perhaps the MT_INTERFACE variable should be removed to reduce confusion.

I'm not sure why all 3 start-up scripts are installed, but at least they should behave consistently if they all use the same defaults file.
