Add support for high depth input in libx264.
Add support for 16-bit colorspaces in the filtering system.
Add support for input bit depths in the interval [9,16] with the raw demuxer.
Add a depth filter to dither input to x264.

Improves quality of colorspace conversions involving RGB(A).

Update dates, improve file descriptions, make things more consistent.
Also add information about commercial licensing.

Fix configure to check for outdated libavutil in resize filter support.
Do not print an explicit error message in ffms when requesting a frame beyond the number of frames in the source.
Mention in --*help that filtering options can be specified as name=value.
Fix the shadowing warning in the resize filter on posix systems.

~1% faster overall on Conroe, mostly due to improved cache locality.
Also allows improved SIMD on some chroma functions (e.g. deblock).
This change also extends the API to allow direct NV12 input, which should be a bit faster than YV12.
This isn't currently used in the x264cli, as swscale does not have fast NV12 conversion routines, but it might be useful for other applications.

Note this patch disables the chroma SIMD code for PPC and ARM until new versions are written.

Similar to mplayer's -vf system.
Supports some basic operations like resizing and cropping.  Will support more in the future.
See the help for more details.
