Add an openImage function that can open PIL images and download from http

[Mohamed-Waiel-Shikfa]

Added openImage to more easily open PIL images. These images can then be manipulated by PIL library and transformed into a CMUImage like usual.

This now works perfectly and passes all the tests. If merged could really help students working with images, as it's now only a matter of calling a function without having to worry about file path etc, potentially making

• There is insufficient documentation about how to use images with Desktop CMU Graphics #66

unnecessary or at least easier to finish.

It could also help in other part of cmu_graphics source code where images are being handled

• (see code of Allow PIL image to be used as a CMUImage url #75 ).

I am not sure if the function needs to be translated somewhere and if it needs to be included in the import of __init__.py, but I am open for feedback and would be happy to integrate any necessary change to see this feature merged.

TL;DR this function aims to expose the loadImageFromStringReference function present in shape_logic.py to the user

, and to thus replace it in some way

I need some help on this one. The test is only failing for macOS zip install, which is weird, and I cannot test locally to debug.
I am also not sure what the difference between the pip and zip installs are, but pip test succeeds on both platforms.

@schmave mind taking a quick look on this when you have the time. Also, quick mention, the other 3 PR are now ready for review.

Hi! Thanks for contributing. I'll take a look at this!

If you are currently active, would it be possible to close and reopen this PR on your end so that the checks can be ran again (the artifacts from the past run expired so that the report log cannot be accessed)? I think my permission on this repo isn't set up correctly just yet so I can't do that from my end :(

Done! Let's see what happening now.
