Patch to enable local cover images

The work of adding priority to cover image sources, and failover has been hived
off to a separate bug no 7187.

How to use/test :
Assign user permission to the user Tools > (upload_local_cover_images Upload
local cover images.
In order to upload local  images, login to the staff client. Go to Home › Tools
› Upload Cover Images.
Here you can upload cover images either singly or in bulk in the form of a zip
file.
If uploading singly, click on image file, browse the image from your local
disk, type in the biblio number of the catalouge entry and press upload.
If uploading in bulk as a zip file, the zip file must contain ( in addition to
cover images ) one text file named either datalink.txt  OR
idlink.txt. This file should have mapping of biblionumber to image file name in
the zip one per line with comma or tab as delimiters. For example

1, scanned_cover_image_of_bib_no_1.jpg
2, scanned_cover_image_of_bib_no_1.jpg

Cover Image Files greater than 100K will be refused. Images should be 140x200
pixels. If they are larger they will be auto-resized to comply.
If a cover image file is uploaded with a biblionumber which already has
matching image in the database it will be overwritten.
1. The patch  adds a menu link in Tools from where you can upload local cover
images
2. It adds a user permission to enable access control to this menu item under
Tools
3. It adds a system preference OPACLocalCoverImages under Enhanced Content.
This needs to be turned on to show local cover images in OPAC.

Once you have uploaded local images, if you search for the biblio, the local
cover should show up in search as well as search detail pages.
