[sylpheed:33483] [PATCH] Gravatar support

Hi,

I've created a patch for Sylpheed 3.0.0beta4 which allows to display a
gravatar [1] of the sender of a message instead of showing his X-Face.
It's based on bits found in update_check.c and headerview.c. It works
but it requires quite a lot of touch ups, for instance

  * Caching gravatars locally
  * Enabling/disabling gravatars fetching in settings
  * Handling a situation when a gravatar isn't available due to a 404
  * Offline state
  * Portability

Please let me know what do you think about it. Do you find it useful?

Remember to run autogen.sh after applying the patch.
