libpng wants to receive samples in either RGB or RGBA order, whether
each sample is big-endian or not. This resolves test failures in
testsuite/gdk/memorytexture.c (and a lot of reftests) on s390x, and
probably the PowerPC family too.
Modifying the test to show the color in use and write out the PNG bytes
to a file, and running the memorytexture test on s390x, produces a PNG
that loads with the correct color values in GIMP (on an x86_64 machine),
which seems like evidence that this is the correct change and not just
compensating errors.

Pass a format do GdkTextureClass::download(). That way we can download
data in any format.
Also replace gdk_texture_download_texture() with
gdk_memory_texture_from_texture() which again takes a format.
The old functionality is still there for code that wants it: Just pass
gdk_texture_get_format (texture) as the format argument.
For MemoryTexture, this is a simple change.
For GLTexture, we need to query the format at texture creation. This
sounds like a bad idea and extra work until one realizes that we'd
need to do that anyway when using the texure the first time - either
when downloading, or when trying to use it in a rendernode, where we
will soon need that information to determine if the texture prefers high
depth.
Also, now make gdk_memory_convert() the only conversion functions
and allow conversions between any 2 formats by going via a float[4].
This could be optimized via fast-paths, but so far it isn't.
1. Change INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY to TOO_LARGE
GTK crashes on insufficient memory, we don't emit GErrors.
2. Split UNSUPPORTED into UNSUPPORTED_CONTENT and UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT
So we know if you need to find an RPM with a loader or curse and
the weird file.
3. Translate error messages, they are meant for end users.
When loading, convert all >8-bit data to
GDK_MEMORY_R16G16B16A16_PREMULTIPLIED.
When saving, save all 8-bit formats as 8-bit RGBA,
and save all >8-bt formats as 16-bit RGBA.
Using libpng instead of the lowest-common-denominator
gdk-pixbuf loader. This will allow us to load >8bit data,
and apply gamma and color correction in the future.
For now, this still just provides RGBA8 data.
As a consequence, we are now linking against libpng.
