The new Firefox Hub addons for Android are using the Feed Parser for RSS feeds. None of the feeds I've seen show thumbnails, but a little digging showed (some) feeds using the media:thumbnail markup. We should support it!

Didn't realize the tests here basically just made sure we could parse some files. Added a media:thumbnail bit to them. Removed some sneaky logging as well :)

this code hurts my eyes every time :)

How do we distinguish this thumbnail from a media:content having type="image/*"? Maybe there should be an additional "thumbnail" boolean property in case the consumer wants to distinguish them?

from what I see, thumbnail should always be an image. Doesn't make a difference here, but for coherence should probably be .jpg

Also, there's 2 spaces before width.
