/**
 * Texture conversion helper class.
 * Provides an asynchronous API to convert input image files into compressed DDS,
 * given various conversion settings.
 * (The (potentially very slow) compression is a performed in a background thread,
 * so the game can remain responsive).
 * Also provides an API to load conversion settings from XML files.
 *
 * XML files are of the form:
 * @code
 * <Textures>
 *   <File pattern="*" format="dxt5" mipmap="false" alpha="transparency"/>
 *   <File pattern="button_wood.*" format="rgba"/>
 * </Entity>
 * @endcode
 *
 * 'pattern' is a wildcard expression, matching on filenames.
 * All other attributes are optional. Later elements override attributes from
 * earlier elements.
 *
 * 'format' is 'dxt1', 'dxt3', 'dxt5' or 'rgba'.
 *
 * 'mipmap' is 'true' or 'false'.
 *
 * 'normal' is 'true' or 'false'.
 *
 * 'alpha' is 'transparency' or 'player' (it determines whether the colour value of
 * 0-alpha pixels is significant or not).
 *
 * 'filter' is 'box', 'triangle' or 'kaiser'.
 *
 * 'kaiserwidth', 'kaiseralpha', 'kaiserstretch' are floats
 * (see http://code.google.com/p/nvidia-texture-tools/wiki/ApiDocumentation#Mipmap_Generation)
