[Openicc] New feature to help calibrate drop sizes

I've checked in a new dither algorithm named "Drop Size Segmented"
that's intended to help in calibrating drop sizes.
The way it works is that the 0-65535 range is segmented, based on the
number of significant bits in the drop size. So for the usual 3 drop
size (00, 01, 10, 11), it's segmented into four ranges: 0-16383,
16384-32767, 32768-49151, and 49152-65535. In the first range, drop
size 0 is printed; in the second range drop size 1, and so forth.
This only works when Raw color correction is selected (no density or
gamma correction at all); if Drop Size Segmented color correction is
selected in any other color correction mode, ordered dithering is used
instead.
