new file: lossless_neon.c
speedup is ~5%
gcc 4.6.3 seems to be doing some sub-optimal things here,
storing register on stack using 'vstmia' and such.
Looks similar to gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51509
I've tried adding -fno-split-wide-types and it does help
the generated assembly. But the overall speed gets worse with
this flag. We should only compile lossless_neon.c with it -> urk.

It's disable for now, because it crashes gcc-4.6.3 during compilation
with -O2 or -O3. It's been tested OK with -O1.
Code is still globally disabled with USE_INTRINSICS, though.
Change-Id: I3ca6cf83f3b9545ad8909556f700758b3cefa61c
disabled for now (but tested OK), thanks to the USE_INTRINSICS #define
We'll activate the code when we're on par with non-intrinsics

Tune HistogramCombineBin for hard images that are larger than 1-2 Mega
pixel and represent photographic images.
This speeds up lossless encoding on 1000 image corpus by 10-12% and compression
penalty of 0.1-0.2%.

there's still some malloc/free in the external example
This is an encoder API change because of the introduction
of WebPMemoryWriterClear() for symmetry reasons.
The MemoryWriter object should probably go in examples/ instead
of being in the main lib, though.
mux_types.h stil contain some inlined free()/malloc() that are
harder to remove (we need to put them in the libwebputils lib
and make sure link is ok). Left as a TODO for now.
Also: WebPDecodeRGB*() function are still returning a pointer
that needs to be free()'d. We should call WebPSafeFree() on
these, but it means exposing the whole mechanism. TODO(later).

expose the predictor array as function pointers instead
of each individual sub-function
+ merged Average2() into ClampedAddSubtractHalf directly
+ unified the signature as "VP8LProcessBlueAndRedFunc"
no speed diff observed

With -bypass_filter switched on, the lossless-compressed
data is decoded ahead of time (before being transformed and
display). Hence, the last row was called twice.

(and ~2-3% on ARM)
We don't need to store cost/score for each node, but only for
the current and previous one -> simplify code and save some memory.
Also made the 'Node' structure tighter.

all the functions involved return double and later these locals are used
in double calculations. fixes a vs build warning

Get back some of the compression gains by extending the search space for
GetBestGreenRedToBlue. Also removed the SkipRepeatedPixels call, as it was not
helping much in yielding better compression density.
Before:
1000 files, 63530337 pixels, 1 loops => 45.0s (45.0 ms/file/iterations)
Compression (output/input): 2.463/3.268 bpp, Encode rate (raw data): 1.347 MP/s
After:
1000 files, 63530337 pixels, 1 loops => 45.9s (45.9 ms/file/iterations)
Compression (output/input): 2.461/3.268 bpp, Encode rate (raw data): 1.321 MP/s

Optimize and re-structured VP8LGetHistoImageSymbols method, by using the bin-hash
for merging the Histograms more efficiently, instead of the randomized
heuristic of existing method HistogramCombine.
This change speeds up the Lossless encoding by 40-50% (for method=4 and Q > 50)
with 0.8% penalty in compression density. For lower method, the speed up is 25-30%,
with 0.4% penalty in the compression density.

Restructure PredictorInverseTransform & ColorSpaceInverseTransform to remove
one if condition inside the main/critial loop. Also separated TransformColor &
TransformColorInverse into separate functions and avoid one 'if condition'
inside this critical method.
This change speeds up lossless decoding for Lenna image about 5% and 1000 image
corpus by 3-4%.

* allow reading from stdin for dwebp / vwebp
* allow writing to stdout for gif2webp
by introducing a new function ExUtilReadFromStdin()
Example use: cat in.webp | dwebp -o - -- - > out.png
Note that the '-- -' option must appear *last*
(as per general fashion for '--' option parsing)

These are presets for lossless coding, similar to zlib.
The shortcut for lossless coding is now, e.g.:
cwebp -z 5 in.png -o out_lossless.webp
There are 10 possible values for -z parameter:
0 (fastest, lowest compression)
to 9 (slowest, best compression)
A reasonable tradeoff is -z 6, e.g.
-z 9 can be quite slow, so use with care.
This -z option is just a shortcut for some pre-defined
'-lossless -m xx -q yy' combinations.

(We didn't need the exact value of the max_error properly.
We can work with relative values instead of absolute)
Output is bitwise the same as before.

Refactor code for HistogramCombine and optimize the code by calculating
the combined entropy and avoid un-necessary Histogram merges.
This speeds up lossless encoding by 1-2% and almost no impact on compression
density.
Change-Id: Iedfcf4c1f3e88077bc77fc7b8c780c4cd5d6362b
mostly by:
- storing a single rd-score instead of cost / distortion separately
- evaluating terminal cost only once
- getting some invariants out of the loops
- more consts behind fewer variables
Change-Id: I79451f3fd1143d6537200fb8b90d0ba252809f8c
incorporate non-last cost in per-level cost table
also: correct trellis-quant cost evaluation at nodes
(output a little bit different now). Method 6 is ~4% faster.
