New function: WebPPictureSmartARGBToYUVA()
This implement smart RGB->YUV conversion.
This is rather undocumented for now, and is triggered using '-pre 4'
preprocessing option.
This is slow-ish and use quite some memory, but should be improvable.
This is somehow a usable beta version.

This compresses the uimage using lossless compression and controlable
decimating pre-process.
Code is under WEBP_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURE while it's being experimented with.

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).

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.

the -alpha_cleanup flag was ineffective since we switched cwebp
to using ARGB input always.

-> helps debanding (sky, gradients, etc.)
This dithering can only be triggered when using -preset photo
or -pre 2 (as a preprocessing). Everything is unchanged otherwise.
Note that this change is likely to make the perceived PSNR/SSIM drop
since we're altering the input internally.

new option: -blend_alpha 0xrrggbb
also: don't force picture.use_argb value for lossless. Instead,
delay the YUVA<->ARGB conversion till WebPEncode() is called.
This make the blending more accurate when source is ARGB
and lossy compression is used (YUVA).
This has an effect on cropping/rescaling. E.g. for PNG, these
are now done in ARGB colorspace instead of YUV when lossy compression
is used.

using token-buffer (that is: slightly more memory. O(output_size))
This change is ON by default. To return to previous behaviour, use
'cwebp -low_memory' or set config.low_memory to true.
Side-effect of this new mode: it forces 1 partition only (which was
default anyway), and makes some statistics about the bitstream
no longer available. cwebp will no longer report 'intra4-coeffs', etc.
This mode also doesn't work (yet) with multi-pass, and -low_memory
is currently forced for multi-pass.
also: reversed the flag: USE_TOKEN_BUFFER -> DISABLE_TOKEN_BUFFER
also: fixed the kAverageBytesPerMB estimate

new option: 'cwebp -mt ...'
new config flag: config.thread_level
(allowed thread_level are 0 or 1 for now. Maybe more later...)
If -mt is activated (and WEBP_USE_THREAD is used for compile), the alpha-compression
will be done in parallel to RGB coding for lossy. Can save quite a bit of latency...
Has no effect for lossless encoding.

This option remaps internal parameters to better match
the expected compression curve of JPEG and produce output files
of similar size, but with better quality.

LSIM stands for "local similarity": before matching
a compressed pixel to the source, we search around in the source
and minimise the squared error. So, this is close to PSNR calculation,
but mitigates some of its limitations (pure translation and noise for instance).
There's a new -print_lsim option to cwebp too.

fixes:
error: ISO C++ forbids forward references to 'enum' types
since:
28d25c8 replace 'typedef struct {} X;" by "typedef struct X X; struct X {};"
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.

also relocate user_data from WebPAuxStats to the WebPPicture struct to
make clearing easier while placing it closer to the progress hook with
which it's used.
prior to this change some spurious lossless data could be reported in
the lossy (sans alpha) encoding case. additionally user_data could be
lost during lossless encoding.

* 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)
* clean-up alpha.c signatures
+ misc cleanup (added const '* const ptr', etc.)

Adds new methods WebPPictureARGBToYUVA() and WebPPictureYUVAToARGB()
Depending on the value of picture->use_argb_input,
the main call WebPEncode() will convert appropriately.
Note that both conversions are lossy, so it's recommended to:
* use YUVA input for lossy compression (picture->use_argb_input=0)
* use ARGB input for lossless compression (picture->use_argb_input=1)
Change-Id: I8269d607723ee8a1136b9f4999f7ff4e657bbb04
* add a real proper pointer for holding memory chunk pointer
(instead of using y and argb fields)
* polish the doc with details
* add a WebPPictureView() that extract a view from a picture
without any copy (kind of a fast-crop).
* properly snap the top-left corner for Crop/View. Previously,
the luma position was not snapped, and was off compared to the chroma.

When importing BGRA or RGBA data for encoding, provide variants of
the WEBPImportPicture API for RGBX and BRGX data meaning the alpha
