On low memory this function can return nil or the image may look bad. (e.g. all black)
The memory used for the temporary storage is original height * new width * 12 bytes plus some extra.
For scaling with the same size as the picture already has, the scaling is still performed.

Returns nil ony error. (e.g. destwidth=0)

This function does not handle mask. Please use pictures with mask and scale image and mask separately.
