nip4, the libvips image processing spreadsheet, is almost done!

It's correctly loading all the test workspaces I have, including a monster with 8.500 rows and 15,000 images.
I'm aiming for late Feb for a first alpha release.

You can compare speed and memory use like this:
$ /usr/bin/time -f %M:%e vipsthumbnail big.jpg --size 256x256 -o x.jpg
58180:0.20
$ /usr/bin/time -f %M:%e convert big.jpg -resize 256x256 x.jpg
717356:1.39
The output is peak memory use in kb, elapsed time in seconds. This is a 10k x 10k pixel JPG.
$ /usr/bin/time -f %M:%e vipsthumbnail big.jpg --size 256x256 -o x.jpg
