Jesse and I talked on irc about the dhandler approach and grumbled about how it
would mean changing all current image urls or moving all the files (so that the
dhandler had a chance to get in the middle).

I suggested that instead we subclass HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler and
HTML::Mason::CGIHandler to send image files without ever involving the Interp.
Attached is a patch to do so.  (It includes the test files from my previous
patch.)
