NOTE: other things that may join it in the near futur EVAS_FRAME_QUEUE,
EVAS_METRIC_CACHE and maybe EVAS_WORD_CACHE also. This is all part of
cleaning up our rendering path so we can actually improve it more easily.

Image_Entry flag structure. This fix a bug with 16 bpp software engine.
* Change image loader module API to take any Image_Entry. Same goes
for evas_common_image_premul and evas_common_image_set_alpha_sparse.
* Use new eet API: eet_data_image_read_to_surface.

sometimes slower)
2. --enable-pthreads will enable multi-threaded rendering (current support is
for up to 4 threads so if you have a new fanled quad core or dual cpu dual
core box or whatever you will in theory be able to max moe of its cpu grunt
with the software rendering engine. this can only be done because i added the
pipelines which means almsot entirely lock-free multithreading internally in
evas. the only locks are for fonts but with a little work i might be able to
remove some/most of those too)
for now pthreaded rendering likely will be linux only (it relies on sched.h
for setting scheduler params to force the slave threads to run on separate
cpu's as linux likes to keep them on the same cpu otherwise and thus we get
no speedups at all - only slowdowns).
aso note that it is a bit of a mixed bag. complex ops (like smooth scaling
with alpha blending) get speedups, but simple ops (like blits/fills) slow down.
this all neds examination and tweaking still - but it's a start.

2. be able to skip a copy in certain cases when scaling - should improve
speed in several situations - evas is defintiely not optimal :)

do NOT depend on order operation precedence. it broke scaling. laos other
completely bizarre mmx things were going wrong with mm7 ending up not 0 so
i've had to force it to be 0.
