[TYPO3-core] RFC #12167: Feature(tte): Enhance report registration API to provide custom icons for reports

[Francois Suter]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Feature enhancement

Bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=12167

Branches:
Trunk

Problem:
It would be nice if the reports registration API provided a way for 
report developers to provide a custom icon for their report, to be 
displayed in the Reports overview screen.

Solution:
Provide such API by adding an "icon" property when registering a report. 
Mind the notes below, I'm not sure my way of getting the icon is the 
best there is.

Notes:
1) If no icon is provided, the attached patch uses the current icon as 
default.
2) Getting a relative file name is never a simple business in TYPO3, 
unless I never noticed some utility method for that. To keep things 
simple I worked on the assumption that an icon would always be provided 
via an extension, so it was ok to act only on a path starting with 
"EXT:" and not any other path.

Cheers
