Your code seems good. but you missed one minor mistake here.

as per above category_form.xml code you created new field <field name="thumbnail">.
So newly created element name will be thumbnail here.

but you are using core module controller to perform upload operation.

<item name="uploaderConfig" xsi:type="array">
    <item name="url" xsi:type="url" path="catalog/category_image/upload"/>
</item>

and in this controller core code has been paasing image field name for image element. i.e.

$result = $this->imageUploader->saveFileToTmpDir('image');

so difference is here. You should be pass your custom field name i.e. thumbnail

Solution

  1. Create your own controller class in your custom module. e.g. app/code/namespace/modulename/Controller/Adminhtml/Category/Image/Upload.php
  2. Copy whole code from above class and paste into your class.
  3. replace fieldname 'image' with thumbnail

    $result = $this->imageUploader->saveFileToTmpDir('thumbnail');
