Nigel Tao 5157039fbd image/color: tweak the YCbCr to RGBA conversion formula again.
The 0x10101 magic constant is a little more principled than 0x10100, as
the rounding adjustment now spans the complete range [0, 0xffff] instead
of [0, 0xff00].

Consider this round-tripping code:

y, cb, cr := color.RGBToYCbCr(r0, g0, b0)
r1, g1, b1 := color.YCbCrToRGB(y, cb, cr)

Due to rounding errors both ways, we often but not always get a perfect
round trip (where r0 == r1 && g0 == g1 && b0 == b1). This is true both
before and after this commit. In some cases we got luckier, in others we
got unluckier.

For example, before this commit, (180, 135, 164) doesn't round trip
perfectly (it's off by 1) but (180, 135, 165) does. After this commit,
both cases are reversed: the former does and the latter doesn't (again
off by 1). Over all possible (r, g, b) triples, there doesn't seem to be
a big change for better or worse.

There is some history in these CLs:

image/color: tweak the YCbCr to RGBA conversion formula.

image/color: have YCbCr.RGBA work in 16-bit color, per the Color
interface.
