~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A conversion from the 8-bit unsigned representation (uint8) to the 8-bit
signed one (int8) is required before calling ColorTransformDelta().
It should be performed using 8-bit two's complement (that is: uint8 range
\[128-255\] is mapped to the \[-128, -1\] range of its converted int8 value).
The multiplication is to be done using more precision (with at least The multiplication is to be done using more precision (with at least

does not matter here: only the lowest 8 bits are used from the result, does not matter here: only the lowest 8 bits are used from the result,
