Michael Olbrich 0b25487cd1 jpegdec: don't overwrite the last valid line
If the the height is not a multiple of the macro block size then the memory
of the last line is reused for all extra lines. This is no problem if the
last line is duplicated properly. However, if the extra lines are not
initialized properly during encoding, then the last visible line is
overwritten with undefined data.
Use a extra buffer to avoid this problem.

The Smoke Codec
---------------

This is a very simple compression algorithm I was toying with when doing a
Java based player. Decoding a JPEG in Java has acceptable speed so this codec
tries to exploit that feature. The algorithm first compares the last and the 
new image and finds all 16x16 blocks that have a squared difference bigger than
a configurable threshold. Then all these blocks are compressed into an NxM JPEG.
The quality of the JPEG is inversely proportional to the number of blocks, this
way, the picture quality degrades with heavy motion scenes but the bitrate stays
more or less constant.
Decoding decompresses the JPEG and then updates the old picture with the new
blocks.


TODO:
----
- make format extensible
- motion vectors
- do some real bitrate control
