[Pixman] [PATCH 14/15] pixman-filter: Gaussian fixes

[spitzak at gmail.com]

From: Bill Spitzak <spitzak at gmail.com>

The SIGMA term drops out on simplification.

Expanded the size slightly (from ~4.25 to 5) to make the cutoff less noticable.
The filter is truncated at a value of .001 instead of .006, this new
value is less than 1/2 of 1/255, rather than greater than it.
