vips has built-in support for rad, analyze and ppm ... add configure
switches to disable these readers
useful to reduce the attack surface in some applications
we had a custom wrapper for bandjoin(), but bandrank(), a function with
an almost identical interface, did not ... this was confusing
bandrank() now has a custom wrapper too ... this breaks API
unfortunately, but hopefully very few people were using this thing and
it's better to make this change as soon as possible
before, im.cast(uchar, shift = true) where im was float and tagged as
rgb16 would not shift the image, since it's unclear how much to shift a float
type by
now we do two casts: first, we guess the numeric range from the
interpretation, so rgb16 would be ushort, so we cast float->ushort;
second, we cast to the target type and do the shift on the way

thanks apacheark
now we have better tuning for the anti-alias blur, we can increase the
amount we shrink by and reduce the amount we affine by
this gives a noticable speedup
we were not setting the access hint on arrayimage args, so
arrayjoin "$(echo *.jpg)" x.tif[bigtiff] --across 10
would open all the jpg images to memory, usually, in random mode
now arrayimage args see the operation's access hint (seq in this case),
for much better behaviour
also, we allow any whitespace as an arg separator in arrayimage from
string
it was a bit granular (since it was designed for offset work), make sharpen
easier to adjust for smaller effects
- new 'sigma' parameter
- greater parameter range
- more self-tests
- Remove the nocache stuff for prog jpg images. There was no saving in
practice, since operations downstream could be cached.
nocache is for objects that can change, not for memory saving
- Call _destroy on the decompress object much earlier, it frees a huge
amount of memoey for prog jpg images.
