An image cannot be rendered across a page boundary and so if it is too tall, then it needs to be resized. This happens automatically for plain images, but not for those in a table (including lists and figures in rst2pdf).
This is because the availHeight parameter passed to wrap() is set to a very large value by reportlab on the assumption that a table cell's data can be rendered over a page boundary. We therefore need to set the correct maximum height into the MyImage instances within a DelayedTable so that they can be resized correctly.
Fixes #966.
@nfraprado: I would appreciate your review.
