Commit of build_consolidation branch
Squashed into one commit (see branch for details of the evolution of the branch). This brings gpcl6 and gxps into the Ghostscript build system, and a shared set of graphics library object files for all the interpreters. Also, brings the same configuration options to the pcl and xps products as we have for Ghostscript.

+.SH NAME
+png \- Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is an extensible file format for the
+lossless, portable, well-compressed storage of raster images. PNG provides
+a patent-free replacement for GIF and can also replace many
+common uses of TIFF. Indexed-color, grayscale, and truecolor images are
+supported, plus an optional alpha channel. Sample depths range from
+1 to 16 bits.
+.br
+
+PNG is designed to work well in online viewing applications, such as the
+World Wide Web, so it is fully streamable with a progressive display
+option. PNG is robust, providing both full file integrity checking and
+fast, simple detection of common transmission errors. Also, PNG can store
+gamma and chromaticity data for improved color matching on heterogeneous
+platforms.
