Redirect to user/org avatar for /[username].png

[crystalcommunication]

Feature Description

GitHub has this feature that allows you to get redirected to any user's avatar by simply adding .png to their profile URL (e.g. https://github.com/go-gitea.png)

It would be fantastic if Gitea could do the same thing. Interestingly, Gitea already checks for a URL like this as of #18798, but instead of returning anything useful, it just returns the text Not Found (not even the fancy 404 page).

If this seems like a good idea, I can get a pull request going right away.

Don't know why this was never implemented but it's already a long time in there (7 years):

Oh, you're right. The PR I mentioned only introduced the current code that handles it. Is there any particular reason for the current behavior? Right now it kinda just seems like it's partially implemented (though all the necessary functions exist)

Don't think so, go for it.
