Possible problems with bitmap recycle on JB. Colorspace option for decoding.

[sherpya]

I've encountered a problem (in my project) while doing createScaled + recycle old on jelly bean, so you may encounter similar problem in UniversalImageLoader/src/com/nostra13/universalimageloader/core/ImageDecoder.java

you should call recycle only if sourcebitmap != rescaledbitmap, since android sdk may return the same bitmap if the size is suitable. createScaledBitemp supposed to work this way but only implemented for real on jelly bean.

also I would suggest to add an option to decode using 565 colorspace, if you don't need transparency it uses half of the memory

Thanks! I'll consider it.

Yes, I agree. It's really reasonable. I just thought about it.
