Expose user avatar URL field in the UI

To be able to change a avatar the URL field needs to be exposed but
changing the URL alone is difficult. This patch adds a image upload
field to the edit view of a user. If there is a file detected it
uploads it to the servers media repository and sets that new URL
as the avatar URL one. This way a admin can change any users avatar
which is especially nice for bridged users like in the IRC bridge
and bots.
