Jehan 2c066afff9 Issue #12614: Successive layer effects should use a higher bit-depth as intermediary format.
While it's normal to be limited to the storage precision at drawable
level, we want to have as high precision as possible during processing.

Two pieces of code were problematic in this regard:

1. GimpApplicator had a "gegl:convert-format" node which was converting
   back to storage format after every effect. Instead only set this node
   after the last effect.
2. "gimp:mask-components" operation was working with the input format.
   Let's change this to work with the higher precision when comparing
   input and aux format (typically when aux was the output of a previous
   filter, now that we didn't convert format back to storage precision,
   the aux precision may be bigger).

README

                   ------------------------------
                   GNU Image Manipulation Program
                       3.0 Release Candidate
                   ------------------------------

This is a release candidate for upcoming version 3.0.0 of GIMP.
This is not considered stable yet, unless testing tell us it is.
Therefore save your work early and often. If you want a stable
version, please use GIMP 2.10 instead.

If you think you found a bug in this version, please report it! We are
at the verge of releasing the next major version of GIMP, so any report
helps.

If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.


1. Web Resources
================

GIMP's home page is at:

	https://www.gimp.org/

Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc.  All things GIMP-ish are available from there.

The latest version of GIMP can be found at:

	https://www.gimp.org/downloads/

We also have a website dedicated to documentation at:

        https://docs.gimp.org/


2. Contributing
===============

GIMP source code can be found at:

	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/

Resources for contributors:

        https://developer.gimp.org/

In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:

* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/


3. Discussion Channels
======================

We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:

        https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html

For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user)
devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network).
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:

	irc.gimp.org:6667
	irc.us.gimp.org:6667
	irc.eu.gimp.org:6667

More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above
"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member.
Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are
also included in that page.

4. Customizing
==============

The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.

You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/shortcutsrc`.
