October: Allow developers to change preview image

The theme preview MUST be placed into assets/images/theme-preview.png. This is a very annoying limitation.

  • This prevent the usage of JPG, GIF, SVG, etc.
  • This forces you to create an images directory.

In our case, we're using an image minifier (with Gulp) which minifies everything from assets/src/images to assets/dist/images. It would be silly to create a new directory, just for the theme preview image.
