[TYPO3-dam] Converting traditional image field to DAM relations

[Davide Principi]

_We are talking about tt_content images_. I think to do the following:

For each textpic/images tt_content record
  For each file in the "image" field (comma separated list)

    1. copy the file from uploads/ to a target directory
    2. push the file in the target dir into the DAM index (why not? 
assign a category? can I do it here?)
    3. create references
    4 (optionally) delete image field content
    5 (optionally) delete uploads/ original file.


Instead of point 4, FE rendering of images from "image" field can be 
disabled, modifying dam_ttcontent TS to not read that field anymore.


What do you think?
