Add image-hint for low-color images.

For low-color images, it may be better to not use color-palettes.
Users should treat this as one another hint (as with Photo &
Picture) and another parameter for tuning the compression density.
The optimum compression can still be obtained by running (outer loop)
compression with all possible tunable parameters.
