Bug Description

build saucy-24
Galaxy Nexus

This is a regression, guessing when we moved away from notify-osd. When incoming call is received on phone, the notification does not show any avatar, only text and accept/decline buttons. It used to show either a default avatar or the actual avatar of the contact if available.

Note that incoming text messages do show avatars still, just not phone calls.

I just verified with the examples/sd-example-incoming-call.py from lp:unity-notifications (you need to "sudo apt-get install python-notify" too) on the GalaxyNexus (using: build saucy-24), that notifications are correctly rendered, if the right parameters were passed. I'm now looking into the phone-app to see what arguments it passes to the notification.

Because the notification-backend does not yet support the hints "image_path" or "image_data", the current method phone-app uses to pass the avatar-image fails. The attached patch is a fix for this.
