Description

Hello together,

it is really a tiresome topic to reduce images in template or modules to a certain size.
There are countless helpers that would not be necessary if this was already in the core.

```
getViewFileUrl('Magento_Theme::images/big.jpg'); ?>
https://www.domain.de/static/version/frontend/vendor/store/en_EN/Magento_Theme/images/big.jpg
```

As a rough example
```
getViewFileUrlAndResize('Magento_Theme::images','50','50','big.jpg'); ?>
https://www.domain.de/static/version/frontend/vendor/store/en_EN/Magento_Theme/images/50x50/big.jpg
```

Thus it would be at least possible to reduce the images on each module simply
