es-cec-input_kodi_18_fix

Kodi v18 changed the name of the Kodi process. Thus, es-cec-input did not detect that Kodi was running. This cause a double click effect when using the directional keys. By changing the find command to only look for 'kodi', it fixes the problem in Kodi v18 without breaking Kodi v17. Using a less precise value for the Kodi process name in theory could make it more susceptible to naming collisions, it seems that changing process names for future Kodi versions is a more likely problem.Kodi v18 changed the name of the Kodi process.
