  Description     : Library for image conversion and compositing

A raster image can be cheaply converted to and from raw byte buffers, enabling interoperability with other crates.

Many image formats are supported:

Bit depth: 8- or 16-bit integer and 32-bit float
Alpha: premultiplied or straight
Gamma: linear or sRGB
Color models:
RGB / BGR (red, green, blue)
CMY (cyan, magenta, yellow)
Gray (luma / relative luminance)
HSV (hue, saturation, value)
HSL (hue, saturation, lightness)
HWB (hue, whiteness, blackness)
YCbCr (used by JPEG)
Matte (alpha only)
OkLab (lightness, green/red, blue/yellow)
XYZ (CIE 1931 XYZ)

This package is a dependency of asusctl, which I plan to package
for debian. It will be maintained as part of the Debian rust
team. It does need a sponsor.
