Updated the near-lossless level mapping and make it correlated to lossy
quality i.e 100 => minimum loss (in-fact no-loss) and the visual-quality loss
increases with decrease in near-lossless level (quality) till value 0.
The new mapping implies following (PSNR) loss-metric:
-near_lossless 100: No-loss (bit-stream same as -lossless).
-near_lossless 80: Very very high PSNR (around 54dB).
-near_lossless 60: Very high PSNR (around 48dB).
-near_lossless 40: High PSNR (around 42dB).
-near_lossless 20: Moderate PSNR (around 36dB).
-near_lossless 0: Low PSNR (around 30dB).

previously the first frame would be redisplayed, which might be
unexpected if the final frame was meant to be a composite, for example.

Enable the WebP near-lossless feature by pre-processing the image to smoothen
the pixels.
On a 1000 PNG image corpus, for which WebP lossless (default settings) gets
25% compression gains, following is the performance of near-lossless feature
at various '-near_lossless' levels:
-near_lossless 90: 30% (very very high PSNR 54-60dB)
-near_lossless 75: 38% (very high PSNR 48-54dB)
-near_lossless 50: 45% (high PSNR 42-48dB)
-near_lossless 25: 48% (moderate PSNR 36-42dB)
-near_lossless 10: 50% (PSNR 30-36dB)
WebP near-lossless is specifically useful for discrete-tone images like
line-art, icons etc.

This is because, FlattenSimilarBlocks() replaces some opaque pixels by
transparent ones. This results in an equivalent output only if blending
is turned on for the current frame.

Snapping odd offsets in GIF to even offsets in WebP was causing extra row/column
being disposed in such cases.
Code is rewritten to maintain previous and current canvas (it used to maintain
previous canvas and current frame earlier). And we recompute change rectangles
as those from GIF may no longer apply.
Also, this renders methods like ReduceTransparency() and ConvertToKeyFrame()
redundant, as internally maintained current canvas is always independent of
previous canvases.
Disposal method choice: we pick the disposal method that results in the smallest
change rectangle.

For some GIF images, the first frame is missing the corresponding
graphic control extension. For such cases, we were never calling
GetBackgroundColor(), and default background color value (white) was being used
incorrectly.
So, we call GetBackgroundColor() when we encounter the first image
descriptor instead, to make sure that it is always called.

put WebPMuxConfig on the stack in main() rather than allocating it in
InitializeConfig(); removes a level of indirection there.

We store the raw RGB samples decoded from JPEG, and avoid precision loss.
Note that this may increase the encoding time reported by
cwebp -v, since RGB->YUV now occur during WebPEncode call
(in case of lossy), instead of ReadJPEG().
This also increases the memory use, since we're carying the
source ARGB samples around.
