This is similar to mode 5, but with less constraints:
- All inks can have split rasters
- Split rasters have a min width of 32 pixels
Note that this is nowhere near enough to make sure the image will be
renderable (number of colors should be limited, unless there is a span
without rasters allowing to reload registers with new colors, and
moving from one pen to another also has a cost). The goal is to offer no
over-restriction (everything that can be shown on the real machine is
drawable). Additional constraints may be checked from a lua script that
will generate the code and data for displaying the picture.
* Settings window: "r" for Reload, "a" for Auto-Save, "s" for Save.
* Screen size: "h" to set height
* Spray menu: "s" for Size, "d" for Delay, "m" for Mono-Flow, "i" for Init
* Text Menu: "t" to enter text, "s" to enter size, show underscore for AA, Bold, Italic
* Palette window: "w" for Swap, "t" for Histo, fix "i" for Flip, show underscore for Merge, Used
* Transform menu: replace X and Y labels with W and H, and make them also shortcuts. I have renamed these
labels so that it does not conflict with the existing Mirror "X" and "Y" buttons.

still some issues :
1) UI color remapping
2) File type selector (need to add a Palette selector
in addition to the Main and Brush selector)
In this custom mode, odd lines use MODE 0 (wide pixels, 16 colors), and
even lines use MODE 1 (square pixels, 4 colors).
- Add a settings window to the 8-bit effect where you can chose what you
want to draw
- Add the customizations required to make it work in graph.c
- Tweak some other places so it is easier to add other modes later on.
- Groundwork for some more modes: EGX2, ZX spectrum, Game Boy color.
Particularly useful when working for platforms with non-linear palettes.
For example the Thomson TO8 has a Gamma correction of 2.8, so the
darkest shade of color is already very bright. It is important to take
this into account when drawing pictures to avoid bad surprises when
showing them on the real machine.
The setting is available from the command line, or from the extended
palette window, which gets a little relayout using horizontal sliders
now that these are available.
* Actually a shortcut to "save picture" with preset PAL format and different window title.

* RGB sliders are twice as high as before (128 pixels)
* Preview area is larger
* Add save/load buttons (not implemented yet)

* Most used colors are moved to the start of the palette
* Stable sorting is used, so unused colors at the end of the palette are not moved at all

Set the initial state to XOR[i]=i, so that on very low color images, the algorithm will try
to swap around the first colors.

* Use a simple optimization algorithm to compute a good set of XOR color pairs
* Algorothm is not very optimized (complexity is up to n^3). In practize, it stabilizes after 2 to 3 rounds of swapping colors
* Use this color table for all XOR effects
* Setting for grid color is now removed
