[Bug]: targetHeight/targetWidth has no effect on Gallery Images

[maxsteinwand]

Current Behavior

When using Camera.chooseFromGallery with targetHeight and targetWidth the Resolution and Filesize will be different than using the deprecated .pickImages.

const { results } = await Camera.chooseFromGallery({
      quality: 80,
      targetHeight: 1920,
      targetWidth: 1920,
      mediaType: MediaTypeSelection.Photo,
      allowMultipleSelection: true,
      limit: 5,
    });

Will result in having a thumbnail with the resolution of 1080x1440 with a filesize of 1.12MB. When using the uri of the taken images it will have the full resolution of the Image (in my Case 3000x4000 with 3.65MB).

Before when using this code:

const { photos } = await Camera.pickImages({
      quality: 80,
      height: 1920,
      width: 1920,
      limit: 5,
    });

The Image Resolution would be 1440×1920 with a Filesize of 427.73KB

Expected Behavior

The resolution should be adjusted to the given targetHeight and targetWidth while respecting the original aspect ratio.
