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.

- add check for native log2 to configure
- use a common define (NOT_HAVE_LOG2) to enable use of local library
version for non-autoconf platforms without their own version,
currently msvc and android
This uses a negative (NOT_HAVE_) to simplify the ifdef

This speeds things up for long message, while not damaging
the stats too much for usual-sized cases

Add code for Alpha encoding & decoding. The alpha compression is done
via backward reference counts encoded with Arithmetic encoder (TCoder).
Also provided is lossy Alpha pre-processing option via level-quantizations
using kNN heuristic.

CloseHandle returns non-zero on success so earlier versions would leave
'ok' with a misleading value, though the return itself was correct.
