Ported from h5bp/html5-boilerplate#774

We've got the far futures Expires header for caching static resources, and the build script automatically revs the CSS and JS when there is a change to the contents, but if you change an image you still have to manually rev the filename. This is true for images embedded in the HTML or referenced in the CSS.

It would be great if the build script (if not Ant, then then upcoming Rake or Cake versions) could somehow handle the automatic revving of image filenames if they have been updated. This was first mentioned in passing in h5bp/html5-boilerplate#707
