  Support providing fallback images

Bug description:
  If the URI for a scope result icon can not be loaded, the scope result
  is not easily visible.

  To counter this, the shell should replace the result image with a
  fallback image if the Image QML component changes to the Error state.
  At a minimum a single standard fallback image would be sufficient, but
  letting the scope pick a custom fallback via the category renderer
  template would be better.

  One reason I'd like to see this is so we can switch the album art
  image provider to stop returning a fallback image.  This has been
  requested by the music-app guys, and seems sensible since we might
  want different fallbacks in different contexts:

  albumart/+merge/219460

  It might also be useful for remote scopes using http: URIs for result
  icons.
