Non-photo source produce far less literal reference and their
buffer is usually much smaller than the picture size if its compresses
well. Hence, use a block-base allocation (and recycling) to avoid
pre-allocating a buffer with maximal size.
This can reduce memory consumption up to 50% for non-photographic
content. Encode speed is also a little better (1-2%)

the unique instance of VP8LHashChain (1MB size corresponding to hash_to_first_index_)
is now wholy part of VP8LEncoder, instead of maintaining the pointer to VP8LHashChain
in the encoder.

We use automatic int->uint64_t promotion where applicable.
(uint64_t should be kept only for overflow checking and memory alloc).

* merged the two HistogramAdd/AddEval() into a single call
(with detection of special case when b==out)
* added a SSE2 variant
* harmonize the histogram type to 'uint32_t' instead
of just 'int'. This has a lot of ripples on signatures.
* 1-2% faster

Reduce calls to Malloc (WebPSafeMalloc/WebPSafeCalloc) for:
- Building HashChain data-structure used in creating the backward references.
- Creating Backward references for LZ77 or RLE coding.
- Creating Huffman tree for encoding the image.
For the above mentioned code-paths, allocate memory once and re-use it
subsequently.
Reduce the foorprint of VP8LHistogram struct by changing the Struct
field 'literal_' from an array of constant size to dynamically allocated
buffer based on the input parameter cache_bits.
Initialize BitWriter buffer corresponding to 16bpp (2*W*H).
There are some hard-files that are compressed at 12 bpp or more. The
realloc is costly and can be avoided for most of the WebP lossless
images by allocating some extra memory at the encoder initializaiton.

This change gains back 1% in compression density for method=3 and 0.5% for
method=4, at the expense of 10% slower compression speed.

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).

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
Speedup lossless encoder by 20-25% by optimizing:
- GetBestColorTransformForTile: Use techniques like binary search and
local minima search to reduce the search space.
- VP8LFastSLog2Slow & VP8LFastLog2Slow: Adding the correction factor for
log(1 + x) and increase the threshold for calling the approximate
version of log_2 (compared to costly call to log()).

Increase the initial buffer size for VP8L Bit Writer from 4bpp to 8bpp.
The resize buffer is expensive (requires realloc and copy) and this additional
memory (0.5 * W * H) doesn't add much overhead on the lossless encoder.
Change-Id: Ic1fe55cd7bc3d1afadc799e4c2c8786ec848ee66
Optimize 'VP8LCalculateEstimateForCacheSize' for lower quality ranges (Q < 50).
The entropy is generally lower for higher cache_bits, so start searching from
higher cache_bits and settle for a local minima, instead of evaluating all
values.
This speeds up the lossless encoding at lower qualities by 10-15%.

This speeds up WebP lossless decoding by 20%. In particular, the
photographic images get 35% speedup.
Change-Id: Idb94750342a140ec05df52c07e12be4bba335adc
Tuned the cross_color transform parameter (step) for lower quality
levels. This change gives speedup of 20% at lower qualities (25) and 10% at
moderate quality level (50) with a loss of 0.25% in compression density.
Also removed TODO for cross_color transform. Observed good correlation of
this with the predict transform.

The auto-infer logic of detecting the 'Alpha' use case
(via check '(palette[i] & 0x00ff00ffu) != 0' is failing
for this corner case image with all black pixels (rgb = 0)
and different Alpha values.
-> switch generic use-LUT detection
Change-Id: I982a8b28c8bcc43e3dc68ac358f978a4bcc14c36
Added 1 pixel cache for palette colors for faster lookup.
This will speedup images that require ApplyPalette by 6.5% for lossless
compression.

huff_image_size was a size_t (=32 bits with 32-bit builds) which could

Returning 0 (equal) can lead to undefined behaviour.
And, in our cases we'll never have equal keys (added asserts for that)

Added a threshold of MAX_COLORS_FOR_GRAPH for color-palettes, above
which the graph hint is ignored.
Change-Id: Ia5d7f45e52731b6eaf2806999d6be82861744fd3
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.

* Extend AuxStats with new fields
it's slightly ABI-incompatible, but i guess it's ok for 0.1.99+
I expect to add more stats later, possibly (predictor stats, etc.)
* Have cwebp report the features used by lossless
compression (either for alpha or full lossless coding)
* Print the PSNR for alpha (useful in case of -alpha_q)
