kodi: add kodi-remote script

[CvH]

This script could easily extended, not sure if something important/useful is missing.
It works ootb with default Kodi settings (ssh enabled ofc).
Its partly an alternative to #3017

That looks pretty good to me.

👍 for merging from my side

This is working fine.

Although from a style POV it would be better to pass the key (action) as an argument to com() rather than use a "global" variable, ie:

com() {
  kodi-send --action="$1" > /dev/null 2>&1
  echo -ne "\r$1\e[K";
}

while true; do
  read -r -sn1 k
  case "$k" in
    A) com "Up";;
    B) com "Down";;
...

etc.
