/**
 * From http://www.w3.org/TR/PNG-Filters.html: The Paeth filter computes a
 * simple linear function of the three neighboring pixels (left, above, upper
 * left), then chooses as predictor the neighboring pixel closest to the
 * computed value. This technique is due to Alan W. Paeth [PAETH].
 *
 * To compute the Paeth filter, apply the following formula to each byte of the
 * scanline:
 *
 * <code>Paeth(i,j) = Raw(i,j) - PaethPredictor(Raw(i-1,j), Raw(i,j-1), Raw(i-1,j-1))</code>
 *
 * To decode the Paeth filter
 *
 * <code>Raw(i,j) = Paeth(i,j) - PaethPredictor(Raw(i-1,j), Raw(i,j-1), Raw(i-1,j-1))</code>
