System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.17763 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 1080/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 417.71

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.80 (sub 51), branch: blender2.7, commit date: 2019-03-21 23:13, hash: 1ae6aaad43
v2.79 also affected
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
A likely-corrupted DDS file causes Blender to crash when shown in File Browser editor in Thumbnails display mode.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Open a new scene.
Switch to File Browser editor.
Navigate to corrupt file.
Change file display mode to Thumbnails.
Blender go boom.
[Based on the default startup]

This manifested as a crash when switching to Shading tab which includes a File Browser in Thumbnail mode (which in this situation opened into a directory containing the offending file).

The oddly specific occurrence of this issue made identifying the culprit a bit laboursome and tedious. Expected causes were anything but the actual cause, and assumptions were of greater issues with either the computer setup or Blender (read: "why Shading tab crash, 2.8 suck!").
I feel this could still be a worthwhile issue to fix as just navigating to a folder with a similarly affected file causes an instant crash and would ruin someone's efforts.
