Right, VIPS can buffer several lines from libpng, do a block average, and then
write out a line of output. Almost no intermediate storage space is required.
That's why we want it.

Sharpening is done on the downscaled image, not the original image. It's
feasible to store the downscaled unsharpened image so that it can be fed into
another run of VIPS or into ImageMagick. We just want to avoid storing the
uncompressed unscaled image.
