Some users have mentioned that a barcode scanner has the best
success when the screen is at its brightest. To enable the best
results, the screen brightness will now be adjusted to its
maximum when displaying a loyalty card.

If a user is unable to scan a barcode, this commit allows a
user to enter is manually.
If the user selects to Enter Card instead of Capture Card,
the user may enter the card's id. As it may not be known which barcode
format the user expects, and the user may not know what barcode
type is what, all barcode types are generated from the user
input. Those that are valid are displayed to the user. The user
may then select the barcode image which matches what the user wants.

It was observed that some barcode encoders will fail if the
data passed to them is not valid for the format. For example,
the ITF encoder will throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
on the input "this is a test".
It turns out that the library used to create datamatrix barcodes
returns the smallest image necessary to contain the barcode. That
is, the size passed into the barcode writer. If the ImageView
scales the tiny image itself into the full size it will use
bi-linear filtering, which results in a blurry barcode.
To avoid this, if scaling is needed do so without using filtering.
The size of the ImageView may not yet be known when the
barcode generation is needed. If this is the case, wait
until the final layout is complete then start the
barcode generation.
This change moves the generation of the barcode into its
own async task. In addition, the size of the ImageView is
used to determine the barcode size to use.
There will be cases when the size of the ImageView will not
be known when the barcode generation starts. This will be resolved
in a future commit.

There are loyalty cards which are not product codes but are 1D
barcodes. Enabling support for all types of 1D barcodes to
enable more types of loyalty cards.
