Hello again,

I would like to introduce a new module in platform : xwiki-platform-thumbnails.

The idea of the module is to provide means of handling thumbnails in
XWiki. Right now the main purpose is to expose APIs to retrieve
thumbnails URLs for images stored as attachments. This module first
use will be to generate thumbnails of user avatars. In this scenario,
it will also introduce a performance improvement compared to today's
way of computing avatar URLS, since the module caches both the
property values (the fact that user X has set an avatar Z.png) and the
thumbnail URL for this avatar.

I've already pushed it in a feature branch/. You can check in
particular 
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/3f5aa1e24ba00fcc939b73b8f9baa179bc0484a3
and all commits in the branch at
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commits/feature-thumbnails

Let me know what you think.
