Review request for kdelibs and David Faure.


Summary
-------

The patch allows to make thumbnail-plugins configurable by the user. One example is the JPEG-thumbnail-plugin: Some users prefer that the preview gets rotated automatically corresponding to the EXIF-information, for some users the automatic-rotating is an issue (e.g. they want to see in Dolphin/Konqueror whether the image needs to get rotated manually).

In KDE SC 4.6 we tried to bypass this issue by offering 2 plugins: One JPEG-thumbnail-plugin for unrotated JPEGs and one for automatically-rotated JPEGS. But this is just a hack as when enabling both plugins it is undetermined which plugin will be used...
