UIImage有一個(gè)imageOrientation的屬性，主要作用是控制image的繪制方向，共有以下8中方向

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, UIImageOrientation) {

    UIImageOrientationUp,            // default orientation
    UIImageOrientationDown,          // 180 deg rotation
    UIImageOrientationLeft,          // 90 deg CCW
    UIImageOrientationRight,         // 90 deg CW
    UIImageOrientationUpMirrored,    // as above but image mirrored along other axis. horizontal flip
    UIImageOrientationDownMirrored,  // horizontal flip
    UIImageOrientationLeftMirrored,  // vertical flip
    UIImageOrientationRightMirrored, // vertical flip
};

+ (UIImage *)imageWithCGImage:(CGImageRef)cgImage scale:(CGFloat)scale orientation:(UIImageOrientation)orientation NS_AVAILABLE_IOS(4_0);
該方法使用一個(gè)CGImageRef創(chuàng)建UIImage，在創(chuàng)建時(shí)還可以指定方法倍數(shù)以及旋轉(zhuǎn)方向。
當(dāng)scale設(shè)置為1的時(shí)候，新創(chuàng)建的圖像將和原圖像尺寸一摸一樣，而orientaion則可以指定新的圖像的繪制方向。
