Make user avatar not a Resource

[mvz]

Having the user avatar be a resource creates several problems:

• A Resource is tied to a blog because the blog sets the avatar size. This is fine for single-blog cases, but if we ever want users to have multiple blogs, this is not convenient.
• User avatars are listed in the blog's media library. This is weird since the media library is for images etc. that will be linked to in the blog posts.

I agree. Back then it was the easiest and fastest way to implement it and release that new feature quickly. But it was also quick and dirty.
