[framemaker-dita] Change default image placement

OK .. that's interesting. Can you provide their use case for this? I 
believe that when an image is in a <fig> it's intended to be a "block 
level" <image>, which you'd want to be on a new line. Is there a reason 
to wrap the <image> in a fig rather than just using <image> outside of 
the <fig> if it's inline?

I'm probably just missing the intent.

Thanks,

...scott
