[Bug 1214802] [NEW] Incorrect image size fits usb estimation

[Dražen Lučanin]

Public bug reported:

I have two images in my Downloads/ folder that are automatically
recognised by the usb-creator:

 - Raspbian - 2 GB
 - ElementaryOS - 600 MB

I want to copy ElementaryOS to my 1 GB thumbdrive. Raspbian is selected
first by default and it doesn't fit the thumbdrive. When I select the
ElementaryOS, however, it is also marked as not fitting the drive and
doesn't let me create the disk (the button is greyed out). I hacked this
by deleting the Raspbian image and restarting the program - it worked
then.

Expected behaviour - selecting another image that fits the drive should
allow the startup disk creation - without any program restarts or manual
image deletion.
