Move the loading of images/previews to its own thread

When I change my shot Prism freezes for ~3 seconds. After some tests it seems like a big mayority of the loading time is for the preview of my render.

I would suggest moving that loading into it's own thread so the UI doesn't freeze up while it's loading.
While it's loading, a temp-image saying "loading" can be displayed so the user knows what's going on.

We are facing the same issue, and it would be a great idea indeed 🙂
