fix pixbuf loader scaling for large ratios

Description
I've found that some images (which have a high uncompressed size / but a low bit-count) stall Nautilus for a while while it tries to generate the content. In my case, the images are typically 'gif' or 'png' and are either very tall (eg. 10,000px) or very wide.
It's possible to specify a file size limit for live thumbnail generation - but it isn't an effect limiting factor in this case.
Inadvertently navigating to a directory which contains one of these images, means I'm out of action for a small but noticeably-frustrating amount of time.
Could an extra limit (maybe using time to process/generate) be imposed?
