Glenn Randers-Pehrson bbe589da44 [master] Change some instances of PNG_READ_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS_SUPPORTED
to PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN to make it possible to build a libpng that can
use the png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() mechanism to ignore unused chunks
without having to save unknown chunks.

Changes since the last public release (1.2.36):
version 1.2.37beta01 [May 14, 2009]
Fixed inconsistency in pngrutil.c, introduced in libpng-1.2.36. The
memset() was using "png_ptr->rowbytes" instead of "row_bytes", which
the corresponding png_malloc() uses (Joe Drew).
Clarified usage of sig_bit versus sig_bit_p in example.c (Vincent Torri)
Updated some of the makefiles in the scripts directory (merged with
those in libpng-1.4.0beta57).
version 1.2.37beta02 [May 19, 2009]
Fixed typo in libpng documentation (FILTER_AVE should be FILTER_AVG)
Relocated misplaced #endif in pngwrite.c, sCAL chunk handler.
Conditionally compile png_read_finish_row() which is not used by
progressive readers.
Added contrib/pngminim/preader to demonstrate building minimal progressive
decoder, based on contrib/gregbook with embedded libpng and zlib.
version 1.2.37beta03 [May 20, 2009]
In contrib/pngminim/*, renamed "makefile.std" to "makefile", since there
is only one makefile in those directories, and revised the README files
accordingly.
Reformated sources in libpng style (3-space indentation, comment format)
version 1.2.37rc01 [May 27, 2009]
No changes.
versions 1.2.37 and 1.0.45 [June 4, 2009]
Reformatted several remaining "else statement;" and "if () statement;" into
two lines.
Added "#define PNG_NO_WRITE_SWAP" to contrib/pngminim/encoder/pngusr.h
and "define PNG_NO_READ_SWAP" to decoder/pngusr.h and preader/pngusr.h
Added sections about the git repository and our coding style to the
documentation (merged from libpng-1.4.0beta62)
Added a section in the documentation about using png_get_io_ptr() in
configure scripts to detect the presence of libpng.
version 1.2.38beta01 [June 12, 2009]
Revised libpng*.txt and libpng.3 to mention calling png_set_IHDR()
multiple times and to specify the sample order in the tRNS chunk,
because the ISO PNG specification has a typo in the tRNS table.
Changed several PNG_UNKNOWN_CHUNK_SUPPORTED to
PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED, to make the png_set_keep mechanism
available for ignoring known chunks even when not saving unknown chunks.
