Just find a script on the net that traverses a file structure on your
operating system, then add the following command for each directory:
Download and install the lastest flac release then issue the following
command within each album directory:
metaflac --import-picture-from="3|image/jpeg|||cover.jpg" *.flac
Replace cover.jpg with the name of your cover files if necessary.

You can find scripts on the net to traverse directory structures on you
operating system. Edit the script and add the above command. Also add
the appropriate delete command to the script if you want the original
image file removed.

This works independently of the flac version used to encode the file.
Re-encoding is not necessary. However the file needs to be re-written
to disk in most cases which usually takes a couple of seconds.
Yes, this adds to your library. The total size used for image data
multiplies with the number of songs in one album (if you use individual
files per track). But considering the average file size of cover images
compared to the total flac file size this is not really worth thinking
about.
