When FlattenSimilarBlocks() was making some blocks transparent with
averaged RGB values, filtering in lossy compression was causing
blockiness just outside the edge of these blocks.
Disabling filtering for that particular case avoid these block
artifacts.
The total encoded size of the 6k GIF set remains roughly the same (in
fact, reduces a bit).

We pick a mapping with quality 0 mapping to max diff 32, to quality 100
mapping to max_diff 1.
For 6k GIF image set, this improves compression by:
4% at quality 0
0.05% at quality 75
Benefits the MovingThumbnailer test videos too.

This way we can ignore some noisy pixels and get tighter frame
rectangles.
Some results:
- Correctness:
Tested that anim_diff reports all images are identical for lossless, and
similar min_psnr value for lossy and mixed modes.
Also checked output images visually to make sure there weren't any
obvious kinks.
- Compression:
A very tiny improvement for 6000 image GIF set we have (0.03%) for lossy
and mixed mode. For some of these images, frames get dropped
automatically as they have a very small diff from previous frame.
10 images from test_video_frames_png show a clear improvement in
compression though. This CL leads to 7 out of 9 lossy WebPs getting
smaller -- for one of them, this leads to a higher quality being picked
(as that’s still < 150 KB).

and also pass 'VP8Io* io' extra param to VP8DecompressAlphaRows()
This is somehow in preparation for some memory optimizations in
the 'cropping' case. For now, only the easy crop_bottom case is
optimized.

The mode's bits were not taken into account, which is ok for most of cases.
But in case of super large image, with 'easy' content, their overhead starts
mattering a lot and we were omitting to optimize for these.
Now, these mode bits have their own lambda values associated, limiting
the jerkiness. We also limit (for -m 2 only) the individual number of bits
to something that will prevent the partition 0 overflow.
removed the I4_PENALTY constant, which was a rather crude approximation.
Replaced by some q-dependent expression.

If value is '2', it means the buffer is a 'slow' one, like GPU-mapped memory.
This change is backward compatible (setting is_external_memory to 2
will be a no-op in previous libraries)
dwebp: add flags to force a particular colorspace format
new flags is:
-pixel_format {RGB,RGBA,BGR,BGRA,ARGB,RGBA_4444,RGB_565,
rgbA,bgrA,Argb,rgbA_4444,YUV,YUVA}
and also,external_memory {0,1,2}
These flags are mostly for debuggging purpose, and hence are not documented.

This is in preparation for some SSE2 code.
And generally speaking, the whole SSIM code needs some
revamp: we're not averaging the SSIM value at each pixels
but just computing the overall SSIM value once, for the whole
plane. The former might be better than the latter.

- The result is now indeed closest among possible results for all inputs, which
was not the case for bits>4, where the mapping was not even monotonic because
GetValAndDistance was correct only if the significant part of initial fit in
a byte at most twice.
- The set of results for a larger number of bits dropped is a subset of values
for a smaller number of bits dropped. This implies that subsequent
discretizations for a smaller number of bits dropped do not change already
discretized pixels, which improves the quality (changes do not accumulate)
and compression density (values tend to repeat more often).
- Errors are more fairly distributed between upwards and downwards thanks to
bankers’ rounding, which avoids images getting darker or lighter in overall.
- Deltas between discretized values are more repetitive. This improves
compression density if delta encoding is used.
Also, the implementation is much shorter now.

SSE4.1 is slower than the SSE2 implementation and this seems to
be due to a slow _mm_loadl_epi64 implementation by gcc
(hence a bug with my gcc 4.8) and a very slow _mm_hadd_epi32. Both
got confirmed by IACA and experiments.

We were not updating the current_width_, which is usually
not a problem, unless we use Delta Palette with small number
of colors
-> Addressed this re-entrancy problem by checking we have
enough capacity for transform buffer.
The problem is not currently visible, until we restrict
the number of gradient used in delta-palette to less than 16.
Then the buffers have different current_width_ and the problem
surfaces.

'implicit conversion from 'int' to 'short' changes value from 33050 to
-32486'
original patch:
https://codereview.chromium.org/1657313003/
Make libwebp build with -Wconstant-conversion from newer clangs.
After http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=259271&view=rev, clang
points out that _mm_set1_epi16(33050) causes an overflow in the short
argument to _mm_set1_epi16(). Since there's no version that takes an
unsigned short, add an explicit cast to tell the compiler that this is
intentional.
No behavior change.
