 Due to Issue #48736,large image downscaling of PNGs is disabled because
 sometimes the new images are larger in filesize than the originals
 (particularly with PNG-8).

 This is reasonable but should be filterable with the current state as the
 default.

 There are use cases where users rarely, if ever, upload PNG-8s but do
 upload massive PNG-24s that would benefit from downscaling. Devs should be
 able to turn this feature on for PNGs as needed.
