This is to prevent users shooting in the foot using -psnr or
-size alone and not getting the expected result.

we map the input file into memory, even in the non-stdin case.
This is less efficient than letting the png/jpeg/... decoding libraries
use fread()'s, but more general.
Change-Id: I4501cb9a1daf69593eb8e3326c115cd8cbdf92fd
-> read is a bit slower (memory allocation and such) than reading directly from disk.
-> we're not yet ready to accept stdin as input (-- -) because we still need to guess
the file type with GetImageType(). And since we can't rewind on stdin, this will need
a bit more work before being able to read from stdin.

Rename the flag to exact instead of the opposite cleanup_alpha. Add the flag to
WebPConfig. Do the cleanup in the webp encoder library rather than the cwebp
binary, this will be needed for the next stage: smarter alpha cleanup for
better compression which cannot be done as a preprocessing due to depending on
predictor choices in the encoder.

This is to infer the needed conversion to YUV(A) or RGB(A).
This is useful to avoid some conversion steps between ARGB and YUVA.
For instance, if the input file is a JPEG, we decode to RGB and
convert to YUV right away, without the intermediate step to ARGB.
The only caveat is that cropping/scaling might give slightly different result,
because of YUV420 downsampling. Therefore, we omit this feature
at cwebp level, when -crop or -rescale is used.

using a *tmp_plane buffer to split a/r/g/b planes up appeared to
be the easiest route, compared to copy-pasting the whole code and
making it x_stride aware...

Updated the near-lossless level mapping and make it correlated to lossy
quality i.e 100 => minimum loss (in-fact no-loss) and the visual-quality loss
increases with decrease in near-lossless level (quality) till value 0.
The new mapping implies following (PSNR) loss-metric:
-near_lossless 100: No-loss (bit-stream same as -lossless).
-near_lossless 80: Very very high PSNR (around 54dB).
-near_lossless 60: Very high PSNR (around 48dB).
-near_lossless 40: High PSNR (around 42dB).
-near_lossless 20: Moderate PSNR (around 36dB).
-near_lossless 0: Low PSNR (around 30dB).

Enable the WebP near-lossless feature by pre-processing the image to smoothen
the pixels.
On a 1000 PNG image corpus, for which WebP lossless (default settings) gets
25% compression gains, following is the performance of near-lossless feature
at various '-near_lossless' levels:
-near_lossless 90: 30% (very very high PSNR 54-60dB)
-near_lossless 75: 38% (very high PSNR 48-54dB)
-near_lossless 50: 45% (high PSNR 42-48dB)
-near_lossless 25: 48% (moderate PSNR 36-42dB)
-near_lossless 10: 50% (PSNR 30-36dB)
WebP near-lossless is specifically useful for discrete-tone images like
line-art, icons etc.

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

this change has the side-effect of using directory names in the
include, silencing a lint warning.
Change-Id: Ib91cf63a90534e32fadfa5c2372bfdb29f854d02
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.

original/compressed pictures were not converted to an adequate YUVA
colorspace before computing the distortion.
Change-Id: I37775e9b7dbd6eca16c38e235e1df325858d36a1
Earlier, all lossless images were assumed to contain alpha.
Now, we use the 'alpha_is_used' bit from the VP8L bitstream to determine
the
same.
Detecting an absence of alpha can sometimes lead to much more efficient
rendering, especially for animated images.
Related: refine mux code to read width/height/has_alpha information only
once
per frame/fragment. This avoid frequent calls to VP8(L)GetInfo().

rather than symlink the webm/vpx terms, use the same header as libvpx to
reference in-tree files
based on the discussion in:

Change-Id: Ia3067ecddefaa7ee01550136e00f7b3f086d4af4
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.

Change-Id: Ie317208488cc851d5d21300591c91cebf5abd4a7
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
Change-Id: I4ea80382038d6df4309663e0cb7bd88d9bca9cf1
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.
Change-Id: I769d0bf90e7380cf99344ad62cd77277f4df5a46
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.
