I was doing some reading and found an unrelated issue, but it described
a workaround to have the thumbnails regenerated.  One needed to select
all of the photos and flip them, then revert to the original.  That
didn't work, but selecting all of the photos and enhancing them, then
reverting back to the original *does* work.

An interesting thing to note is that I can select a photo to be the key
for an event, but that photo will not show up until after the workaround
described above is performed.

I performed the following:
1) Obtained a dump of photo.db.
2) Started Shotwell and assigned a new key photo for an event.
3) Shut down Shotwell and obtained another dump.
4) Restarted Shotwell and performed the workaround described above.
4) Shut down Shotwell and obtained another dump.

The only difference between the 3 dumps is the "primary_source_id" field
in the EventTable.  In the dump obtained in #1, the field's value is
"thumb0000000000000c8d".  In the other 2 dumps, the field's value is
"thumb0000000000000c8e".
