MediaLibrary: Add thumbnail generation API

Romain Vimont requested to merge rom1v/medialibrary:thumbnail_from_media_id into master

Add an API to request asynchronous thumbnail generation from a media id.

The existing API (IMedia::requestThumbnail()) needs a Media instance. If the client only knows the media id, it must execute a SQL query to retrieve a Media, so for an UI client, this defeated the purpose of an asynchronous API.

This new API resolves the media id from the worker thread.
