[Pixman] [PATCH v8 07/14] pixman-filter: Corrections to the integral() function

From: Bill Spitzak <spitzak at gmail.com>

The IMPULSE special-cases did not sample the center of the of the region.
This caused it to sample the filters outside their range, and produce
assymetric filters and other errors. Fixing this required changing the
arguments to integral() so the correct point could be determined.

I fixed the nice filter and the integration to directly produce normalized
values. Re-normalization is still needed for impulse.box or impulse.triangle
so I did not remove it.

Distribute fixed error over all filter samples, to remove a high-frequency
bit of noise in the center of some filters (lancoz at large scale value).

I removed the recursion where it splits at zero. This would only be necessary
if the curve was not smooth at this point, but it is for all integrations
(even linear.linear is smooth). Plots show that removing this makes no difference.

box.box, which I expect will be very common as it is the proposed "good" filter,
was made a lot faster and more accurate. This is easy as the caller already
intersected the two boxes, so the width is the integral.

v7: This is a merge of 4 patches and lots of new code cleanup and fixes
 determined by examining the gnuplot output
