Add support for alpha. Make it possible to copy, set and multiply the
alpha value of a frame during conversion.
Set the border alpha to 0xff by default.
Go over some of the fastpaths and add alpha handling.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745006
Add fastpaths for all planar conversion and scaling.
Improve gray and alpha handling.
Add option to specify the chroma resampler method and set to linear as
default.
Add fast path scaling for YUY2 and other packed YUV formats. Add a new
method to merge the scalers of the Y and UV components into one scaler.
Add faster horizontal 2tap scaler.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741987
Add support for scaling of images with pstride == 1. This can be used
to scale individual planes later.
Rework some of the scaling code to take the pstride as a parameter.
Avoid using a constant.
Avoid doing saturated adds, results are not supposed to overflow here.
Rework the C backup function a little in preparation for custom backup
functions in ORC.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741015
Make an ORC version of the 2x vertical upsampling code.
Improve unit tests, test chroma up and down sampling.
memset buffer in conversion to make valgrind happy.
Combine multiplies in 4x filters.
Rename conversion functions to make them nicer in orc.
Add ORC versions for various downsampling algorithms
Add unit test chroma resampler
Add scaler functions for 16 bits formats.
Rename the scaler functions so that 16bits versions don't look too
weird.
Remove old unused h_2tap functions
Fix v_ntap functions, it was using 1 tap too little.
A faster version of 4tap horizontal scaling causes segfaults in ORC
presumably because it uses too many registers so disable it to avoid
crashing in the ORC tests.
Add the old ORC functions for nearest and linear. Label them as Low
quality because they are not as accurate but ORC lacks opcodes to
express this for now.
Move the conversion code used in videoconvert to the video library
and expose a simple but generic API to do arbitrary conversion. It can
currently do colorspace conversion but the plan is to add videoscale to
it as well.
