to 'clean up' the fully-transparent area and make it more compressible
new cwebp flags: -alpha_cleanup (off by default, since gain is not 100% guaranteed)

.. where only 2 filtering modes are potentially
tried, instead of all of them. This is fast than the exhaustive 'best'
mode, and not much worse.
Options for cwebp are:
-alpha_filter none
-alpha_filter fast (<- default)
-alpha_filter best (<- slow)
Change-Id: I8cb90ee11b8f981811e013ea4ad5bf72ba3ea7d4
Add predictive filtering option for Alpha plane.
Valid range for filter option is [0, 5] corresponding to prediction
methods none, horizontal, vertical, gradient & paeth filter.
The prediction method 5 will try all the prediction methods (0 to 4)
and pick the prediction method that gives best compression.
Change-Id: I9244d4a9c5017501a9696c7cec5045f04c16d49b
Updated cwebp (Webp Encoder) binary to support Alpha encoding.
Modified man page and WebP container spec appropriately.

Although it degrades quality, this option is useful to avoid the 512k
limit for partition #0.
If not enough to reach the lower bound of 4bits per macroblock header,
one should also limit the number of segments used (down to -segments 1)
See the man file for extra details.

To be enabled with the flag WEBP_USE_THREAD.
For now it's only available on unix (pthread), when using Makefile.unix
Will be switched on more generally later.
In-loop filtering and output (=rescaling/yuv->rgb conversion)
is done in parallel to bitstream decoding, lagging 1 row behind.
Example:
examples/dwebp bryce.webp -v
Time to decode picture: 0.680s
examples/dwebp bryce.webp -v -mt
Time to decode picture: 0.515s

You can now use WebPDecBuffer, WebPBitstreamFeatures and WebPDecoderOptions
to have better control over the decoding process (and the speed/quality tradeoff).
WebPDecoderOptions allow to:
- turn fancy upsampler on/off
- turn in-loop filter on/off
- perform on-the-fly cropping
- perform on the-fly rescale
(and more to come. Not all features are implemented yet).
On-the-fly cropping and scaling allow to save quite some memory
(as the decoding operation will now scale with the output's size, not
the input's one). It saves some CPU too (since for instance,
in-loop filtering is partially turned off where it doesn't matter,
and some YUV->RGB conversion operations are ommitted too).
The scaler uses summed area, so is mainly meant to be used for
downscaling (like: for generating thumbnails or previews).
Incremental decoding works with these new options.
More doc to come soon.
dwebp is now using the new decoding interface, with the new flags:
-nofancy
-nofilter
-crop top left width height
-scale width height

For now, SSE2 functions are compiled a-minima: only on platforms
where __SSE2__ is defined. Let's later add some autoconf-based
config to enable/disable at will.
One can disable SSE2 at run-time by hooking-up VP8GetInfo.
There is a new option "-noasm" in cwebp for that.
Output should be binary the same between C and SSE2 version. If not,
that's a bug!

Makes things lighter at the expense of requiring the user
to be up-to-date for autotools.
