Scaling causes bad artifacts (horizontal lines) with compression at least with Nogatech MicroCam so disable it (for this HW).

This also fixes messed up image with some programs (Cheese with 160x120, Adobe Flash). HW seems to support only image widths that are multiple of 64 but the driver does not account that in vidioc_try_fmt_vid_cap(). Cheese calls try_fmt with 160x120, succeeds and then assumes that it really gets data in that resolution - but it gets 128x120 instead. Don't know if this affects other usbvision devices, it would be great if someone could test it.
