[Android] RNImage resize causes very long images to become blurry #54749

Description

@sookcha

Description

  • RNImage causes very long images to become blurry when resized
  • I know it uses Fresco under the hood and Fresco has a limitation of up to 2K resolution, but at least it accepts a configurable max size
  • Also recent Android devices can draw much larger than 2K
  • I think React Native Image should accept a max size option too
  • Or we can update Fresco max size limit

Steps to reproduce

  • Load a very large image with RNImage

React Native Version

0.82.1
