scroggo 77b798ce8e Update the version of libpng used by Skia tests
The version of libpng we were using has some security vulnerabilities.
Update to a newer version - 1.6.20 (047737496a/).

Update pnglibconf.h. The new version is a copy of the newer version of
the file, with our /* custom settings */ tacked onto the end. (The
custom settings are unchanged from the last version.)

Update the LICENSE. The new version is a copy of the LICENSE that
libpng now includes as a separate file.

Update the README file to reflect the change in source of the LICENSE
file.

Version: 1.6.16
License: libpng license
License File: LICENSE, pulled out of png.h
Description: png compression/decompression library
Local Modifications: (1) Created pnglibconf.h from pnglibconf.h.prebuilt (a
rename with a few additional settings enabled). (2) Copied LICENSE into
this directory. (Originally it was pulled from png.h, but libpng has
now provided a separate LICENSE file for convenience, which we use
directly.)
FAQ:
Q: Why does this directory exist?
A: libpng is pulled in through DEPS, but in order to build it using ninja, we
need to create pnglibconf.h. We originally tried creating
the file as an action in https://codereview.chromium.org/930283002/, but this
apparently led to a race condition on Windows, where some builds failed to
create the file in time for other files to include it. By checking these
files directly into Skia, we eliminate the race condition.
