* Fixed VLC_IsPlaying (fixes #259)

  Now uses the state variable instead of playlist_IsPlaying. The PLAYLIST_PAUSED state is no longer reliable since the introduction of the state variable for testing if playback is in a paused state. Perhaps we should remove this part of the playlist logic and keep it to RUNNING and STOPPED.
