Word-level formatting (italics, bold) remains to be done,
but awaits final author edits, to avoid rework.

No further experiments are to be expected, so this is quite the
final format so far, pending supplemental feedbacks.

- Make sure alpha flag is set in case of a lossless file with VP8X chunk.
The semantic of ALPHA_FLAG changes with this: it means the images
contain alpha (rather than ALPH chunk in particular).
- Update the mux container spec to add 1-line description of alpha
flag.
- Rename "HasLosslessImages()" to "MuxHasLosslessImages()", and other
similar function renames.
- Rename FeatureFlags to WebPFeatureFlags
- Elaborated a comment for a special case.
- A misc comment fix.

now, we only use 2 bits for the filtering method, and 2 bits
for the compression method.
There's two additional bits which are INFORMATIVE, to specify
whether the source has been pre-processed (level reduction)
during compression. This can be used at decompression time
for some post-processing (see DequantizeLevels()).
New relevant spec excerpt:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

Compression method (C): 2 bits
: The compression method used:
* `0`: No compression.
* `1`: Backward reference counts encoded with arithmetic encoder.
Filtering method (F): 2 bits
: The filtering method used:
* `0`: None.
* `1`: Horizontal filter.
* `2`: Vertical filter.
* `3`: Gradient filter.
Pre-processing (P): 2 bits
: These INFORMATIVE bits are used to signal the pre-processing that has
been performed during compression. The decoder can use this information to
e.g. dither the values or smooth the gradients prior to display.
* `0`: no pre-processing
* `1`: level reduction
Decoders are not required to use this information in any specified way.
Reserved (Rsv): 2 bits
: SHOULD be `0`.
Alpha bitstream: _Chunk Size_ - `1` bytes
: Encoded alpha bitstream.
This optional chunk contains encoded alpha data for a single tile.
Either **ALL or NONE** of the tiles must contain this chunk.
The alpha channel data is losslessly stored as raw data (when
compression method is '0') or compressed using the lossless format
(when the compression method is '1').

- the tile chunk size does not include the alpha or vp8 chunks that
follow
- remove 'experimental' note from alpha section
- drop an unused term from the terminology section
Change-Id: I46f0fd610bbce579446e19339c3458dddfb595f7
- split the doc into sections for simple and extended format and move
example layouts to the end.
- use ASCII tables to describe chunk formats
- attempt to consistently use MUST/SHOULD, etc.
- remove bold from most terms, but add them to definition lists which
allow for the styling to be changed.

Updated cwebp (Webp Encoder) binary to support Alpha encoding.
Modified man page and WebP container spec appropriately.

- Add alpha support in mux.
- Remove WebPMuxAddNamedData() and WebPMuxGetNamedData() APIs. Add WebPMuxSetImage(), WebPmuxGetImage() and WebPMuxDeleteImage() APIs instead.
- Refactor code using WebPImage struct.
- Corresponding changes in webpmux binary.
- WebPMuxSetImage()/AddFrame()/AddTile() can now work with data which starts from "RIFF...". This simplifies reading a single-image webp file and adding it as an image/frame/tile in mux.

Added the Mux Container Spec (RIFF structure) for the features supported
(Color Profile, XMP Metadata, Animation & Tiling) via WebP Mux. Also
added README file with example psudo code for using the Mux API(s) and a
short description on webpmux (comand line tool, planned to be pushed out
in subsequent Git change).
