The changes include support for function attributes in VC in addition to
those already present in GCC - necessary because without these some
warnings are unavoidable. Fixes include signed/unsigned fixes in
pngvalid and checks with gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wunused.
VC requires function attributes on function definitions as well as
declarations, PNG_FUNCTION has been added to enable this and the
relevant function definitions changed.
that were recently introduced, mostly resulting from
safe but uncast assignments to shorter integers. Also added a zlib
VStudio release library project because the latest zlib Official Windows
build does not include such a thing.
Fixed point APIs are now supported throughout (no missing APIs).
Internal fixed point arithmetic support exists for all internal floating
point operations.
sCAL validates the floating point strings it is passed.
Safe, albeit rudimentary, Watcom support is provided by PNG_API_RULE==2
Two new APIs exist to get the number of passes without turning on the
PNG_INTERLACE transform and to get the number of rows in the current
pass.
A new test program, pngvalid.c, validates the gamma code.
Errors in the 16 bit gamma correction (overflows) have been corrected.
cHRM chunk testing is done consistently (previously the floating point
API bypassed it, because the test really didn't work on FP, now the test
is performed on the actual values to be stored in the PNG file so it
works in the FP case too.)
Most floating point APIs now simply call the fixed point APIs after
converting the values to the fixed point form used in the PNG file.
The standard headers no longer include zlib.h, which is currently only
required for pngstruct.h and can therefore be internal.

contrib/pngminim project to pngerror.c, for use when warnings or
errors are disabled via PNG_NO_WARN or PNG_NO_ERROR_TEXT, to avoid
storing unneeded error/warning text.
from the source files, along with "#define PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES"
and "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" (John Bowler).
Also created new pngdebug.h and moved debug definitions there.
