React-native-fast-image: Support Base64 images on Android.

[anhtuank7c]

I do display base64 image with FastImage, work well on iOS, show blank view on Android.

Is this issue resolved yet? I still got this bug on Jan 2018

At the very least it should show a warning if you try to do this to avoid potential issues.

Any update ?

Here is a workaround.
You can set base64 string this way:

const image = `data:${mimeType};base64,${base64String}`
<FastImage
      source={{ uri: image }} <---- put base64 with mimetype here
/>

Where mimeType depends on content.
I use this code to resolve type from a file extension.
