    Return an image from the file path with options to search multiple paths and

       If a path precedes it, this will be searched as well.

       the end will be ignored.
    :type dirname: string

       this is usefull so later you can relink the image to its original data.
    :type place_holder: bool
    :arg recursive: If True, directories will be recursivly searched.
       Be carefull with this if you have files in your root directory because
       it may take a long time.

       Use this when loading image formats blender may not support, the CONVERT_CALLBACK
       can take the path for a GIF (for example), convert it to a PNG and return the PNG's path.
       For formats blender can read, simply return the path that is given.
