[Radiant] Asset Manager Extension patch for use with 0.6.4

[Loren Johnson]

Keith,

The future plans sound good. I personally have to cast my vote for you  
keeping a backward compatible file system version around for a bit as  
I've got several sites currently using the extension and I doubt I'll  
move all the images to the db side in those cases.

Either way, I've attached the patch for the current version to work  
with Shards. If you're comfortable tying it to that you'll see it's a  
very tidy way to go, probably easier than copying and hackifying the  
views anyway.

Cheers,

Loren
