no avatar in notification for call or message

[Bill Filler]

send a text message or make an incoming call to the phone from a contact that has an avatar in your address book. The notification does not display the correct avatar. It shows an empty black box where the avatar should be.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

We've tracked down the issue to:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-api-team/unity-notifications/trunk/view/head:/src/Notification.cpp#L130

Which only checks for a leading slash to figure out if it should prepend the path with "image://gicon/", which is wrong. It should probably check if there are *any* slashes, and use image://theme/ if there are none. Otherwise it should just pass the string through.

Also, there was one other problem: the contact avatar file path has a % and thus an encoding is required in the URL in order for it to arrive correctly on the other side.
