FS#530 - Reverse-engineer color scaling/dithering algorithm

Mitsubishi CP-D70, D707, K60, D80, and their siblings (Kodak 305, Fuji ASK300) all rely on the driver to dither/scale their output data based on an unknown algorithm.

Figure out what this is, so that these printers can be properly supported.

The .CPC data tables are now imported into the backend. So far the only thing useful in there is the 8bpp BGR -> 16bpp YMC baseline conversion. The rest of the parameters are still opaque.

After Mitsu released a binary-only CUPS filter for the D70, I started on some early reverse-engineering work.

.RAW (ie lamination pattern) and .LUT (ie color mapping in the absence of ICC usage) is now implemented -- although the latter requires packed BGR spool data.

Major progress; algorithmic work is essentially complete, just needing to convert input data into the proper format before I can start testing.
