we can save some space and still end up with a 20% faster function

Yesterday 18:57 231d552972: isdigit replace with a slightly faster and shorter conditional

in testing of three ways of doing this current: ((_ctype_+1)[(unsigned char)(c)]&_N)

alt1(this patch): (((unsigned int) (c) - '0') < 10)

alt2: ((unsigned int)(c ^ 0x30) < 10)

alt1 and alt2 are the same in terms of speed and instructions (on arm v7) but alt2 has one more instruction on mips

(across several archs in godbolt mips, armv7v8, x86) and on ARM7 (clipzip) device about 9% faster

less false positives for both alt1 and 2 when you start supplying more than 8bits not sure if that matters in practice though

I tried similar with isxdigit but could only get to within 1 instruction of the ctype implementation although it negated the array lookup I saw no discernable speed difference on device

Yesterday 18:00 cf42dd6b12: powermgmt: adjust sleep timer behavior

Responding to the bug report posted by iPodVT: https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,55180.msg255292

- An active sleep timer that runs out will now cause the player to shut down regardless of playback state

- When playback state is paused or stopped, once the idle timer has run out, player will shut down, regardless of any running sleep timer
