on read and write. In libpng 1.6 the two cases can be distinguished and
considerable code cleanup, and extra error checking, is possible. This
makes calls on the write side that have no effect be ignored with a
png_app_error(), which can be disabled in the app using
png_set_benign_errors(), and removes the spurious use of usr_channels
on the read side.
Because of the changes to support symbol prefixing PNG_INTERNAL_FUNCTION
declares floating point APIs during libpng builds even if they are completely
disabled. This requires the png floating point types (png_double*) to be
declared even though the functions are never actually defined. This
change provides a dummy definition so that the declarations work, yet any
implementation will fail to compile because of an incomplete type.
ignore all unknown chunks and all known chunks except for IHDR, PLTE, tRNS,
IDAT, and IEND. Previously it only meant ignore all unknown chunks, the
same as num_chunks == 0. Revised png_image_skip_unused_chunks() to
provide a list of chunks to be processed instead of a list of chunks to
ignore. Revised contrib/gregbook/readpng2.c accordingly.
The compiler performs an optimization which is safe; however it then warns
about it. Changing the type of 'palette_number' in pngvalid.c removes the
warning.
on alignment increasing pointer casts when -Wcast-align is passed. This
fixes the cases clang warns about either (pngread.c) by eliminating the
casts from png_bytep to png_uint_16p or, for pngrutil.c where the cast
is previously verified or pngstest.c where it is OK by introducing new
png_aligncast macros to do the cast in a way that clang accepts.

checks. The code now does a png_error if an attempt is made to do the
row initialization twice; this is an application error and it has
serious consequences because the transform data in png_struct is
changed by each call.
This turns on PNG_FLAG_DETECT_UNINITIALIZED to detect app code that
fails to call one of the 'start' routines (not enabled in libpng-1.5
because it is technically an API change, since it did normally work
before.) It also makes duplicate calls to png_read_start_row (an
internal function called at the start of the image read) benign, as
they were before changes to use png_inflate_claim. Somehow webkit is
causing this to happen; this is probably a mis-feature in the zlib
changes so this commit is only a work-round.
