[webkit-dev] Color profiles in expected.png files

[Simon Fraser]

It turns out that some of the layout test expected.png files have color 
profiles (Generic RGB), and some do not 
<https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67880>.

On my Lion machine, at least, this affects the appearance of the standard green 
color, and causes pixel tests to fail.

It appears that these files have come from various sources, including Tony 
Chang's embedding of checksums in image files, and new expected results created 
on Lion.

I think we should be consistent about color profiles, and in a way that doesn't 
break pixel tests. Does anyone want to vote one way or the other?

Once we decide, we should also have some kind of protection against adding new 
pixel results which don't follow convention. Maybe webkit-patch can be taught 
about this.
