atsc_epg 64-bit bug / fault tolerance

[Mike Slegeir <tehpola@gmail.com>]

I was looking at using the dvb-apps when I had a hangup with atsc_epg.  
This issue had been previously reported from what I found at 
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg44661.html 
but had not been resolved from what I could tell.
Below I'm including a patch to fix the segfault on 64-bit builds and 
also to improve tolerance of the fault I found when a segment was read 
with a mode of '?' (don't ask me why, but I could try to give more 
information if desired).
The first three changes in the patch are about using an appropriately 
sized type rather than casting a pointer to a larger type; this fixes 
the segfault.  The last change involves nulling the title text when it 
fails to parse rather than failing altogether.

Thanks,
Mike Slegeir
