+Fix the banding artifacts that are sometimes introduced into nearly flat
+regions by truncation to 8bit colordepth.
+Interpolates the gradients that should go where the bands are, and
+dithers them.

+This filter is designed for playback only.
+Do not use it prior to lossy compression, because compression tends
+to lose the dither and bring back the bands.

+Maximum amount by which the filter will change any one pixel.
+Also the threshold for detecting nearly flat regions (default: 1.2).
+.IPs <radius>
+Neighborhood to fit the gradient to.
+Larger radius makes for smoother gradients, but also prevents the filter
+from modifying pixels near detailed regions (default: 16).
