v0.11.4

Bufixes:

• Fix decoding confusing superfluous image data from previous frames with current frame data.
• Bump minimum required version of weezl.

Features:

• Add Encoder::{get_ref, get_mut, into_inner} to access underlying stream.

v0.11.3

Bugfixes:

• Fix panic while decoding some images, has no precise cause in the file.
• Warn about set_extensions being unimplemented...

Features:

• Added StreamingDecoder::version to query the precise version of the standard used for encoding the file. This is merely a hint.
• Added DecodeOptions::allow_unknown_blocks to skip over unknown or unspecified block kinds.

Optimization:

• Frame::from_rgba now recognizes when less than 256 colors are being used, dynamically skipping the quantization phase.
• Encoding image chunks is faster and simpler

v0.11.2

• Fix panic when LZW code size is invalid
• Added option to omit check for lzw end code

v0.11.1

• Frames out-of-bounds of the screen descriptor are again accepted by default.
• Added DecodeOptions::check_frame_consistency to turn this validation on.

v0.11

• Rename Reader to Decoder.
• Reworked Decoder into DecodeOptions.
• The decoding error is now opaque and no longer allocates a string. Adding more information or more error conditions is forward compatible.
• Replace the lzw decoder with weezl, up to +350% throughput.
• The dysfunctional C-API has been (temporarily?) removed
  • It may get reintroduced as a separate crate at some point
• Added a std feature. It must be active for now.
