  to be removed (except at last scanline of (Adam7-reduced) image) before working with pure image buffers

  in and out are allowed to be the same buffer, in may also be higher but still overlapping; in must
  have >= ilinebits*h bits, out must have >= olinebits*h bits, olinebits must be <= ilinebits
  also used to move bits after earlier such operations happened, e.g. in a sequence of reduced images from Adam7
  only useful if (ilinebits - olinebits) is a value in the range 1..7
