  Fixed deprecation warnings in OFS.misc_

The bug is that a number of modules are imported at class scope in order
to compute paths on disk to images. I can't see any reason not to move those
imports up to module scope, which would remove the attack vector.

The attached patch against the 2.12 branch makes the reported URL result
in a 404 (as desired).
