I'd like to rename {{uservatar}} macro to {{avatar}} (ie deprecate the {{uservatar}}
alias) + rename the current "username" parameter to "name":
{{avatar name="XWiki.VincentMassol" /}}
"id" would be probably more correct (but maybe too technical I don't know)
yes I hesitated with '"reference" and "id" but I found them too
technical even if more correct technically...

the avatar reference is a user or a group but in case it isn't possible for other
types it's always possible to add a type parameter later on.
