[PATCH] WIP: use gnus supplied undisplay function to hide images

Subject: [PATCH] WIP: use gnus supplied undisplay function to hide images

According to emacs upstream [1], we can't expect overlay invisibilityy
and images to get along. This is a first attempt to use the
"undisplayer" functions saved by gnus (specificially mm-insert-image)
to do the hiding.

There are some potential efficiency concerns. A second copy of all
parts is saved. That could (perhaps?) be optimized to only be done for
the toggled ones. Profile / test first, optimize later
