[theora] NHW Image codec - 2 lower quality settings

[Raphael Canut]

Hello,

Just a quick message to let you know that I have improved my algorithm.Now,
I apply the post-processing function of the decoder on the 512x256 wavelet
image (half wavelet synthesis) rather than on the whole 512x512
reconstructed Y comp.Results (on all quality settings) seem to be visually
better, more neatness and more precision (this is also -slightly- confirmed
with PSNR).

So after few tests, I have updated the demo page with this new version.Any
comment is welcome.
