Infrastructure

Improvements

JCR Model (data/tree backend for Public API and REST API)

Improvements

[SV-35887] Added sv:imageFilterRepository as child Node of sv:site. This new repository has all site-global sv:imageFilter as children
[SV-35887] Added properties "description", "maxHeight" and "maxWidth" for the sv:imageFilter Node type
[SV-35897] The children of sv:site was previously in an unpredictable order. Now they are added (i.e. implicitly sorted) by their JCR Names

Public API

REST API

Improvements
