Scaling, colorspace conversion, and dithering library

Some folks have expressed interest in having a program library to perform the common tasks of manipulating resolution, colorspace, and depth. The "z" library (name subject to change) provides a simple interface to perform those tasks. An open source Vapoursynth plugin is provided, demonstrating the usage of the API.

Code:
NAME:
    z - z.lib for VapourSynth

SYNOPSIS:
    z.Format(clip clip,
             int "width",
             int "height",
             int "format",
             enum "matrix",
             enum "transfer",
             enum "primaries",
             enum "range",
             enum "chromaloc",
             enum "matrix_in",
             enum "transfer_in",
             enum "primaries_in",
             enum "range_in",
             enum "chromaloc_in",
             string "resample_filter",
             float "filter_param_a",
             float "filter_param_b",
             string "resample_filter_uv",
             float "filter_param_a_uv",
             float "filter_param_b_uv",
             string "dither_type")

    z.Subresize(clip clip,
                int width,
                int height,
                float "shift_w",
                float "shift_h",
                float "subwidth",
                float "subheight",
                string "resample_filter",
                float "filter_param_a",
                float "filter_param_b",
                string "dither_type")

DESCRIPTION:
    z.Format is a drop-in replacement for the built-in VapourSynth resize
    functions. It converts a clip of known or unknown format to another clip
    of known or unknown format, changing only the parameters specified by the
    user. z.Subresize provides advanced resampling capabilities intended for
    use by script writers.

    Arguments denoted as type "enum" may be specified by numerical index
    (see ITU-T H.265 Annex E.3) or by name. Enums specified by name have their
    argument name suffixed with "_s".

    clip:                   input clip
        The input may be of COMPAT color family (requires VS R28).

    width,
    height:                 output image dimensions

    format:                 output format preset id
        The output may be of COMPAT color family (requires VS R28).

    matrix,
    transfer,
    primaries:              output colorspace specification
        If not provided, the corresponding attribute from the input clip will
        be selected, except for YCoCg and RGB color families, where the
        corresponding matrix is set by default.

    range:                  output pixel range
        For integer formats, this allows selection of the legal code values.
        Even when set, out of range values (BTB/WTW) may be generated. If the
        input format is of a different color family, the default range is
        studio/limited for YUV and full-range for RGB.

    chromaloc:              output chroma location
        For subsampled formats, specifies the chroma location. If the input
        format is 4:4:4 or RGB and the output is subsampled, the default
        location is left-aligned, as per MPEG.

    matrix_in,
    transfer_in,
    primaries_in,
    range_in,
    chromaloc_in:           input colorspace/format specification
        If the corresponding frame property is set to a value other than
        unspecified, the frame property is used instead of this parameter.
        Default values are set for certain color families.

    resample_filter,
    filter_param_a,
    filter_param_b:         scaling method for RGB and Y-channel
        For the bicubic filter, filter_param_a/b represent the "b" and "c"
        parameters. For the lanczos filter, filter_param_a represents the
        number of taps.

    resample_filter_uv,
    resample_filter_uv_a,
    resample_filter_uv_b:   scaling method for UV channels

    dither_type:            dithering method
        Dithering is used only for conversions resulting in an integer format.

    shift_w,
    shift_h:                offset of image top-left corner
        The top-left image corner is assumed to be at coordinate (0, 0) and
        the first sample centered at coordinate (0.5, 0.5). An offset may be
        applied to the assumed image origin to "shift" the image.

    subwidth,
    subheight:              fractional dimensions of input image
        The input image is assumed to span from its origin a distance equal to
        its dimensions in pixels. An alternative image resolution may be
        specified.

    The following tables list values of selected colorspace enumerations and
    their abbreviated names. For all possible values, see ITU-T H.265.
        Matrix coefficients (ITU-T H.265 Table E.5):

                    Typically used for GBR (often referred to as RGB);
                    however, may also be used for YZX (often referred to as
                    XYZ);
