Title: Add film strip option to the thumbnailer

Hi Jeff,

I have added an option (-f, --film-strip) to the thumbnailer to create a film strip around the thumbnail. As you will see, this uses the rsvgoverlay gstreamer plugin. If this plugin is not installed, the option is ignored and the thumbnail is created without a film strip anyway.

I have added the film strip svg as a variable inside thumbnailer.py, and I'm loading it using the 'data' property of rsvgoverlay. Alternatively a separate svg file could have been added and loaded using the 'location' property, but I think it's a little bit faster loading it straight into python, even if it's not that elegant. Plus, it would have needed to import stuff from common into the thumbnailer if it was a separate svg file.

So, please review this and pull if you like,

Regards,

George
