While the DNG specification supports greyscale ("BlackIsZero") for
thumbnails, RawTherapee seems to have trouble reading them. Generate
thumbnails in RGB instead (but still with greyscale content, to avoid
having to interpolate colour components).

We likely try to get color thumbs in the future, so it's a good thing we 
reserve space for that now as a first step ;-P
