There already is a wrapper for MagickWand, we just don't use if for more than 
saving/loading images. MagickWand does not support multidimensional images 
well, so I'm quite hesitant to start relying on MagickWand for more than I/O. 
(I think OpenCV is better in this regard.)

For this specific issue, resize would not be terribly hard to write in Julia, 
and it should be as fast as C.
