Do not create thumbnail for encrypted PDF

Description
We should not create thumbnails for password-protected (encrypted) documents, as this is a potential security risk (thumbnail could be viewed by anything, unencrypted).
Alternatively, encrypt the thumbnail data somehow, so that it may only be decrypted with the original password for the document itself.

Really? The build I have (RC2a) just created a thumbnail for a password-protected PDF.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.

Matthias, any more thoughts on this one? The last test you sent me was still creating these, and these thumbnails are viewable outside of the program and from the FOC within Lucide, as well, before the password dialog is raised.
