This class extends the functionality of the Image Display Library client API defined 

in the class CImageDisplay. In order to invoke the extended functionality, the user needs to call the 

CImageDisplay::ExtensionInterface( ) with the KUidGenIclImageDisplayPluginExtUid interface UID

and an interface pointer to the object of this class. This is an optional extension and some framework 

plug-ins may not support it.

				The maximum quality reduction factor.

				Usually the maximum reduction can be specfied in range of 0-3.

				A value of 0 means no quality reduction is allowed, so a full-quality image will be decoded as the first frame.

				A value of 1 means (1/2)^1=1/2 of the original image quality. 

				A value of 3 means (1/2)^3=1/8 of the original image quality. 

				If the reduction factor is not set by calling this function then

				the reduction factor value of 0 is used for losslessly encoded images; it is 3 for jpeg images.
