Create Texture from memory or from stream

[mctb32]

It would be great if the texture loader component contained functions to create textures not only from files, but also from memory or from user streams. It seems the functionality is almost there, but it's not exposed to the end user. Also the image types are deduced from file extensions, rather than from the actual file headers.

This functionality is in fact already there. If you want to create an image from memory, you can use
Image::CreateFromDataBlob() function that also allows you to specify the image format. A texture can then be created from this image with CreateTextureFromImage() function. If you have a DDS data blob, you can create a texture from it with CreateTextureFromDDS().
