Now that the code works consistently so that these just switch off the support
for having libpng do the interlace/deinterlace the old names make more sense,
restoring them avoids cruft in the configuration file and avoids an unnecessary
version specific change.

Most of these are back-portable to earlier versions (contrib/libtests
should just work with earlier versions), however the 1.7 specific
changes in pngvalid mean that it probably won't work against 1.7 without
the commits following this one.

handling in contrib/libtests/pngstest.c; possible overflow of
unsigned char in contrib/tools/png-fix-itxt.c). To use the "secure"
file handling, define PNG_USE_MKSTEMP, otherwise "tmpfile()" will
be used.
pngstest.c, and pngimage.c. Most seem harmless, but png-fix-itxt
would only work with iTXt chunks with length 255 or less.
Fixed cexcept.h in which GCC 5 reported that one of the auto
variables in the Try macro needs to be volatile to prevent value
being lost over the setjmp, and fixed g++ build breaks (John Bowler).
Fixed 'minimal' builds. Various obviously useful minimal configurations
don't build because of missing contrib/libtests test programs and overly
complex dependencies in scripts/pnglibconf.dfa. This change adds
contrib/conftest/*.dfa files that can be used in automatic build
scripts to ensure that these configurations continue to build.
Enabled WRITE_INVERT and WRITE_PACK in contrib/pngminim/encoder.
These changes cause 16-bit arithmetic to be used for 8-bit data in the gamma
corrected compose and grayscale operations. The arithmetic errors have
three sources all of which are fixed in this commit:
1) 8-bit linear calculations produce massive errors for lower intensity
values.
2) The old 16-bit "16 to 8" gamma table code erroneously wrote the lowest
output value into a table entry which corresponded to multiple output
values (so where the value written should have been the closest to the
transformed input value.)
3) In a number of cases the code to access the 16-bit table did not round;
it did a simple shift, which was wrong and made the side effects of (2)
even worse.
The new gamma code does not have the 16-to-8 problem at the cost of slighly
more calculations and the algorithm used to minimize the number of
calculations has been extended to all the 16-bit tables; it has advantages
for any significant gamma correction.
