fc7815d692 multi-thread decoding: ~25-30% faster
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

d260310511 add Advanced Decoding Interface
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
