Title:
  AvailableApps API should not serve icon_data inline

Status in Online service used by software center:
  Fix Released
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The initial implementation of the software center agent required a
  single 64x64 icon to be base64 encoded into the available_apps api
  request for each application.

  We were very aware this would not scale and would need to change, but
  from memory the changes required in the client were not possible at
  the time (?).
