setImageUri takes too long

[gmarques33]

When I get a photo from G+ Photos app, sometimes this need to be downloaded. In this case the app will hang for some time and I get an ANR.

With older devices, decodeBitmat takes too long too.

I think that setImageUri needs to be executed on a background thread. The method setImageUri can accept a callback and return after the job has done.

This seems like a problem worth solving. @ArthurHub, what do you think the right answer should be here? Disabling the crop support and drawing some sort of loading indicator on the crop image view while downloading the Bitmap?

Yep, that sounds reasonable, maybe provide the client with optional widget to be placed while it is loading.

Hmm... how about an async overload of setImageUri with just a basic success/failure callback? That should let the client toggle whatever UI state they want.

@sethgho That's exactly what I did.
I will improve the code and make a pull request.
