Resize and Crop to a specific width x height with a crop suggestion point.

I really don’t have a shorter description for this.  I was working on a personal project the other day and realized that this might be a nifty function.  Basically, you know all those snippets to make cropped thumbnails (squares and the like), and how most of them either center or crop to the top of an image.  I wanted a new function that would crop to most any size I desired and any position on the image I desired without the need to change any code, only parameters.  And thus img_resize_crop was born.

Function code is below, try out a demo at https://rrbits.com/resizer/ (Demo code is available here: https://rrbits.com/resizer.zip )

Right now it’s pure GD (uses a sharpening convolution matrix to get over GD’s resizing blurryness), though could probably be converted to ImageMagick by someone who knows more about ImageMagick than I.  (Plus more patience, no desire to port it right now.)
