patch to add a pdftops -r # option to set the splash dpi resolution

When pdftops -level1 or -level1sep finds a transparency or a color image mask,
it uses splash to rasterize the image.  PSOutputDev.cc currently uses a
hard-coded value of 300 dpi.  This patch allows you to set a different value on
the command line.  The hard-coded value of 300 dpi is a good compromise between
resolution and file size, but I am printing on a high-resolution device that
supports over 1000 dpi, and rasterizing at 300 dpi degrades some details in my
images.  Conversely, someone worried about file size might want to select a
lower resolution.
