Marking certain frames as "do not blend" helps avoiding alpha-blending
at decode/render time.
It also helps inserting I-frames (frames which can be independently
decoded) into the animation.

Also created variant VP8LPrefixEncodeBits that returns the
code & extra_bits only.
There's no impact on compression density and compression speed.

WebPDemuxPartial() returns NULL for both of the following cases:
- There was a parsing error.
- It doesn't have enough data to start parsing.
Now, one can differentiate between these two cases by checking the value
of 'state' returned by WebPDemuxPartial().

Earlier, all lossless images were assumed to contain alpha.
Now, we use the 'alpha_is_used' bit from the VP8L bitstream to determine
the
same.
Detecting an absence of alpha can sometimes lead to much more efficient
rendering, especially for animated images.
Related: refine mux code to read width/height/has_alpha information only
once
per frame/fragment. This avoid frequent calls to VP8(L)GetInfo().

Speed up HashChainFindCopy by optimizing on number of calls to
FindMatchLength method.
This change speeds up the lossless & lossy (Alpha) encoding by 20%
without loss of compression density.
At method=3, lossy (Alpha) compression speed (and density) remains
unchanged, as at that settings, the costly Backward Refs method is not
called

Disable costly 'BackwardReferencesTraceBackwards' for encoding Alpha plane.
Increase the threshold for triggering 'BackwardReferencesTraceBackwards' to
quality 25 and above. Also lower the Alpha quality (at method 3) to be
lesser than this threshold (25).

This speeds up WebP lossless decoding by 20%. In particular, the
photographic images get 35% speedup.
Change-Id: Idb94750342a140ec05df52c07e12be4bba335adc
speeds up those codes that are not part of the main lookup.
This gives a 10 % speedup for a photographic image.

This is to ensure that the output WebP image is consistent with original
GIF when displayed against any background color.

+ some revamp and cleanup of the alpha-filter trial loop
+ EncodeAlphaInternal() now just takes a FilterTrial param
Change-Id: Ief84385083b1cba02678bbcd3dbf707245ee962f
Specialize and simplify the alpha-decoding case, which is used when:
- no color-cache is use
- all red/blue/alpha values are the same (and hence their Huffman tree has
only 1 symbol. We don't need to consume any bits for reading these).
+ revamped the loop to use size_t and offsets instead of pointers.
~2-3% faster on Unix (gcc) but up to 25% faster lossy+alpha decoding
on Mac (llvm) and ARM.
