[Kde-imaging] KIPI imgur plugin

[Fabian Vogt]

I didn't do that for various reasons:

- Simplicity: A lot of additional files for just one plugin.
    Now that more plugins are going to be adapted that's less the case.
- Maintainability: It does not come as a system-wide library and incorporating
    other project's source codes is always a PITA
- Licensing: I'm not an expert, I don't even recognize what it is licensed under.

If libkipiplugins would now integrate it, I'd change the imgur plugin to use it,
of course.
