Overview
PINRemoteImageManager is the main workhorse of PINRemoteImage. It is unnecessary to access directly if you simply wish to download images and have them rendered in a UIImageView, UIButton or FLAnimatedImageView.
However, if you wish to download images directly, this class is your guy / gal.
You can use this class to download images, postprocess downloaded images, prefetch images, download images progressively, or download one image in a set of images depending on network performance.

– setEstimatedRemainingTimeThresholdForProgressiveDownloads:completion:
Set the estimated time remaining to download threshold at which to generate progressive images. Progressive images previews will only be generated if the estimated remaining time on a download is greater than estimatedTimeRemainingThreshold.
