Title:
  Thumbnail generation fails if the URI contains unescaped special
  characters

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  As the UserThumbnailProvider::run doesn't escape the input file URI,
  the thumbnail creation fails if the URI contains illegal characters.

  For example the video lens is pretty lazy when it comes to escaping
  the URIs (it just uses anything the locate query gives). If you open a
  preview of a video that has a space in the path, thumbnail generation
  fails as the space breaks the input file into two separate command
  line parameters.
