Messages 2.5 - Require "picture" to refer to an image file

Issue #794 resolved
Michael Jones created an issue

Mark Wahl points out that we should require that the "picture" be displayable when describing the user. He quoted the following language from SCIM. We should do the same.

  The value SHOULD be a
  canonicalized URL, and MUST point to an image file (e.g. a GIF,
  JPEG, or PNG image file) rather than to a web page containing an
  image.  Service Providers MAY return the same image at different
  sizes, though it is recognized that no standard for describing
  images of various sizes currently exists.  Note that this
  attribute SHOULD NOT be used to send down arbitrary photos taken
  by this User, but specifically profile photos of the User suitable
  for display when describing the User.
