New release of H.264/AVC reference software JM 13.0

Dear experts,

I uploaded a new release of the JM H.264/AVC reference software to my
web site at:

http://iphome.hhi.de/suehring/tml/download/

The is the first version that has feature complete support for the new
professional 4:4:4 profiles. Please test these features extensively.

I have removed the work spaces for MS Visual Studio 6.0 for different
reasons: I do no longer have this old development environment installed
on my PC, so I can't support any problems with that, which includes
adding new files. Microsoft also has stopped the support for VS6 pretty
long time ago. And the current code has encoder/decoder mismatches due
to compiler bugs that were only fixed in the last VS 6 Service Pack.

This release also contains various bug fixes and optimizations. It now
allows loss of single data partitions, which was an often requested feature.

For the full list of changes, please see below.

Best regards,
Karsten
