Feature request: additional functions (rotate, crop, scale, ...)

I think there is a real need for a "native" image processing library, but at the moment this repo is lacking fundamental functions such as: cropping, scaling, rotating, flipping etc...

Thank you so much for the feature request, Elad! I'm going to implement these functions in the coming few weeks or so, as you are correct, there is a fundamental need for these functions to be available within the library also.

I'm hoping to start with flipping and rotating first, then will work on cropping and scaling. Scaling may take slightly more time than the others due to the required need of making the scaling algorithm to be as fast as possible. I may work on this separately after rotating, flipping, and cropping.

Thanks again! It's always fantastic to get feature requests such as yours, as I'm always striving to add new features to this library, and to get feedback directly from developers. Much appreciated.

@silvia-odwyer that sounds great! I might be able to help out.. I'm quite new to Rust, but I think this will be a nice challenge..
