Give users and developers a way to opt in to the new format conversion code,
and more code from the swscale rewrite in general, even while development is
still ongoing.

Proper names should be capitalized in all user facing API as far as
possible. The option names themselves have not been changed since:
1. We consistently keep option names in lower case.
2. Changing them would break existing scripts.
The converse is also true: improper names should not be capitalized
generally.

Both of these dithering methods are from http://pippin.gimp.org/a_dither/ for
GIF they can be considered better than bayer (provides more gray-levels), and
spatial stability - often more than twice as good compression and less visual
flicker than error diffusion methods (the methods also avoids error-shadow
artifacts of diffusion dithers).
These methods are similar to blue/green noise type dither masks; but are
simple enough to generate their mask on the fly. They are still research work
in progress; though more expensive to generate masks (which can be used in a
LUT) like 'void and cluster' and similar methods will yield superior results
