Updated VP8LGetBackwardReferences and HashChainFindCopy method with following:
- Remove the recursive CostModelBuild.
- Reuse the lz77 backward refs in CostModelBuild, instead of evaluating it
again (as it was done for recursion_level=0).
- Consolidated the Match-length logic inside FindMatchLength method.
- Removed the logic for altering best_length/val based on the 2D distance.
The additional 162 value (+= 9 * 9 + 9 * 9 - y * y - x * x) can't change the
best_val eval computation to choose a different curr_length, as best_val was
set to 'curr_length << 16'.
Following is the impact on the compression speed/density at default & max
quality, overall this speeds up compression by 5-15% (q=100 -> 75) with a tad
drop (0.02-0.03%) in compression density for the non-palette images.

Evaluate if for Palette images (num_colors <= 256), non-palette

optimal compression density.
This change reduces the WebP file (for palette images) size by 0.4% with

We compact the palette by weighted distance, favoring the green channel.
Average gain on paletted file is ~0.5%, with gain up to 6-7% on some favorable cases.
Encoding speed is unaffected.
Disabled for alpha (or any single-channel input)
Also: always use quality=20 for EncodePalette() since it

New function: WebPPictureSmartARGBToYUVA()

This is rather undocumented for now, and is triggered using '-pre 4'

This is slow-ish and use quite some memory, but should be improvable.
This is somehow a usable beta version.

The luminance needs to be pre- and post- multiplied by
the alpha value in case of rescaling, for proper averaging.
Also:
- removed util/alpha_processing and moved it to dsp/
- removed WebPInitPremultiply() which was mostly useless
and merged it with the new function WebPInitAlphaProcessing()
Change-Id: If089cefd4ec53f6880a791c476fb1c7f7c5a8e60
also changed the token-page layout a little bit to remove
a not-needed field.
This reduces the number of malloc()/free() calls substantially
with minimal increase in memory consumption (~2%).
For the tail of large sources, the number of malloc calls goes
typically from ~10000 to ~100 (e.g.: bryce_big.jpg: 22711 -> 105)
Change-Id: Ib847f41e618ed8c303d26b76da982fbc48de45b9
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%)

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 is to help further optimizations.
(like in https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/#/c/69787/)

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).

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.

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.
