WebP2 Image Encode

This is a test of Google's libwebp2 library with the WebP2 image encode utility and using a sample 6000x4000 pixel JPEG image as the input, similar to the WebP/libwebp test profile. WebP2 is currently experimental and under heavy development as ultimately the successor to WebP. WebP2 supports 10-bit HDR, more efficienct lossy compression, improved lossless compression, animation support, and full multi-threading support compared to WebP.

To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark webp2.
