new options:
dwebp -alpha_dither
vwebp -noalphadither
When the source was marked as quantized, we use a threshold-averaging
filter to smooth the decoded alpha plane.
Note: this option forces the decoding of alpha data in one pass, and
might slow the decoding a bit.
The new field in WebPDecoderOptions struct is 'alpha_dithering_strength'
(0 by default, means: off). Max strength value is '100'.

* allow reading from stdin for dwebp / vwebp
* allow writing to stdout for gif2webp
by introducing a new function ExUtilReadFromStdin()
Example use: cat in.webp | dwebp -o - -- - > out.png
Note that the '-- -' option must appear *last*
(as per general fashion for '--' option parsing)

New API options: WebPDecoderOptions.flip and 'dwebp -flip ...'
it uses negative stride trick.
Also changed the decoder code to support user-supplied
buffers with negative stride, independently of the
WebPDecoderOptions.flip value.

from man-pages (7):
provides a comma-separated list of related man pages, ordered by section
number and then alphabetically by name, possibly followed by other
related pages or documents. Do not terminate this with a period.

Even at high quality setting, the U/V quantizer step is limited
to 4 which can lead to banding on gradient.
This option allows to selectively apply some randomness to
potentially flattened-out U/V blocks and attenuate the banding.
This option is off by default in 'dwebp', but set to -dither 50
by default in 'vwebp'.
Note: depending on the number of blocks selectively dithered,
we can have up to a 10% slow-down in decoding speed it seems.

Doesn't work with WIC
+ redirect some info messages from stdout to stderr
+ fix the error reporting upon output-writing error

It will decode to raw (flat) YUV format, similar to what
cwebp can take as input. Makes the PSNR/SSIM calculation easier.

retains the alpha channel rather than stripping it as with PPM.
display from ImageMagick can render the files

escape '-'s

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
