automatically load placeholder when loading empty or null URI

See original GitHub issue

Using the following code

imageView.load(url) {
    placeholder(R.drawable.image)
}

If the url is empty or null then it would be great if the placeholder is loaded automatically. It doesn’t seem to do that currently.

You can also use:

imageView.load(url) {
    fallback(R.drawable.image)
}

to set a fallback drawable if the url is null.

@mario @colinrtwhite Sorry for the late reply. I’ve found there were similar request and discussions in the past. fallback seems to be what I’ve been looking for so okay to close.
