this avoids local-minima that look bad, even if the distortion
looks low (e.g. gradients, sky,...). Mostly visible in the q=50-80 range.
Output size is mostly unchanged.

* raise U/V quantization bias to more neutral values
* also raise the non-zero AC bias for Y1/Y2 matrices
(we need all the precision we can for U/V leves, which are often empty)
This will increase quality in the higher range (q >= 90) mostly.
Files size is exacted to raise a little (5-7%). and SSIM accordingly of course.

kLevelsFromDelta[sharpness][delta] is an inverse look-up table
that tells the minimum filtering strength needed to trigger the
filtering of a step with amplitude 'delta'. We use this table
in various situations:
a) when computing the initial (/global) filtering
strength for each segment. We look at the quantization
step and deduce the proper filtering strength needed
to result this quantization noise (talking the -f option
into account).
b) during intra16 calculation, when a block ends up
very empty (only DC coeffs are non-zero, all ACs have
vanished). We'll rely on the in-loop filtering to
restore the smoothness (if the source was gradient-like
smooth. That's why we look at the distortion too before
triggering the filtering).
Step b) goes _in addition_ to a), potentially raising
the filtering strength if blockiness is likely.

* fix VP8FixedCostsI4ÆÅ table
(the constant cost '211' was erronenously included)
* use the rd-score for '211' correctly (calling SetRDScore() for good)
* count partition0 bits separately during rd-opt
No meaningful difference in rd-curve.

When -mt is used, the analysis pass will be split in two
and each halves performed in parallel. This gives a 5%-9% speed-up.
This was a good occasion to revamp the iterator and analysis-loop
code. As a result, the default (non-mt) behaviour is a tad (~1%) faster.

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.

Add a dirty_ flag to keep track of updated probabilities and the need to
recompute the level costs.
This only makes a difference for "-m 2" method which was sub-optimal.
But it's overall cleaner to have this flag.

Gathers all DSP-related function (and SSE2 implementations).
Clean-up some unwanted symbolic dependencies so that webp_encode,
webp_decode and webp_dsp are truly independent libraries.
+ opportunistic clean-up:
* remove unneeded VP8DspInitTables(), now integrated in VP8DspInit()
* make consistent use of VP8GetCPUInfo() in the various DspInit() funcs
* change OUT macro to DST
Although it degrades quality, this option is useful to avoid the 512k
limit for partition #0.
If not enough to reach the lower bound of 4bits per macroblock header,
one should also limit the number of segments used (down to -segments 1)
See the man file for extra details.

converts PNG & JPEG to WebP
This is an experimental early version, with lot of room
of later optimizations in both speed and quality.
Compile with the usual `./configure && make`
Command line example is examples/cwebp
Usage:
cwebp [options] -q quality input.png -o output.webp
where 'quality' is between 0 (poor) to 100 (very good).
Typical value is around 80.
More encoding options with 'cwebp -longhelp'
