The luminance needs to be pre- and post- multiplied by
the alpha value in case of rescaling, for proper averaging.
Also:
- removed util/alpha_processing and moved it to dsp/
- removed WebPInitPremultiply() which was mostly useless
and merged it with the new function WebPInitAlphaProcessing()

a not-needed field.
This reduces the number of malloc()/free() calls substantially
with minimal increase in memory consumption (~2%).
For the tail of large sources, the number of malloc calls goes
typically from ~10000 to ~100 (e.g.: bryce_big.jpg: 22711 -> 105)

MALLOC_FAIL_AT flag can be used to set-up a pre-determined failure
point during malloc calls. The counter value is retrieved using
getenv().
Example usage: export MALLOC_FAIL_AT=37 && cwebp input.png
will make 'cwebp' report a memory allocation error the 37th time
malloc() or calloc() is called.
MALLOC_MEM_LIMIT can be used similarly to prevent allocating more
than a given amount of memory. This is usually less convenient to
use than MALLOC_FAIL_AT since one has to know in advance the typical
memory size allocated.
Both these flags are meant to be used for debugging only!
Also: added a 'total_mem_allocated' to record the overall memory allocated
Change-Id: I9d408095ee7d76acba0f3a31b1276fc36478720a
Non-photo source produce far less literal reference and their
buffer is usually much smaller than the picture size if its compresses
well. Hence, use a block-base allocation (and recycling) to avoid
pre-allocating a buffer with maximal size.
This can reduce memory consumption up to 50% for non-photographic
content. Encode speed is also a little better (1-2%)

The predictors based on Average2 are tad slower.
Following is the performance data for these predictors normalized to
number of instruction cycles (as per valgrind) per operation:
- Predictor6 & Predictor7 now takes 15 instruction cycles compared to 11
instruction cycles for the C version.
- Predictor8 & Predictor9 now takes 15 instruction cycles compared to 12
instruction cycles for the C version.
The predictors based on Average4 is faster and Average3 is tad slower:
- Predictor10 (Average4) now takes 23 instruction cycles compared to 25
instruction cycles for the C version.
- Predictor5 (Average3) now takes 20 instruction cycles compared to 18
instruction cycles for the C version.
Maybe SSE2 version of Average2 can be improved further. Otherwise, we can
remove the SSE2 version and always fallback to the C version.

Reduce calls to Malloc (WebPSafeMalloc/WebPSafeCalloc) for:
- Building HashChain data-structure used in creating the backward references.
- Creating Backward references for LZ77 or RLE coding.
- Creating Huffman tree for encoding the image.
For the above mentioned code-paths, allocate memory once and re-use it
subsequently.
Reduce the foorprint of VP8LHistogram struct by changing the Struct
field 'literal_' from an array of constant size to dynamically allocated
buffer based on the input parameter cache_bits.
Initialize BitWriter buffer corresponding to 16bpp (2*W*H).
There are some hard-files that are compressed at 12 bpp or more. The
realloc is costly and can be avoided for most of the WebP lossless
images by allocating some extra memory at the encoder initializaiton.

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.
