Changes since the last public release (1.2.52):
Issue a png_error() instead of a png_warning() when width is
potentially too large for the architecture, in case the calling
application has overridden the default 1,000,000-column limit
(fixes CVE-2014-9495 and CVE-2015-0973).
Quieted some harmless warnings from Coverity-scan.
Display user limits in the output from pngtest.
Changed PNG_USER_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX from unlimited to 8,000,000.
This can only be changed at library-build time. It only
affects the maximum memory that can be allocated to an
ancillary chunk; it does not limit the size of IDAT
data, which is instead limited by PNG_USER_WIDTH_MAX.
Rebuilt configure scripts with automake-1.15 and libtool-2.4.6
