* Move current work into single branch
* Initial massaging of clientapi etc (not working yet)
* Interfaces for accounts/devices databases
* Duplicate postgres package for sqlite3 (no changes made to it yet)
* Some keydb, accountdb, devicedb, common partition fixes, some more syncapi tweaking
* Fix accounts DB, device DB
* Update naffka dependency for SQLite
* Naffka SQLite
* Update naffka to latest master
* SQLite support for federationsender
* Mostly not-bad support for SQLite in syncapi (although there are problems where lots of events get classed incorrectly as backward extremities, probably because of IN/ANY clauses that are badly supported)
* Update Dockerfile -> Go 1.13.7, add build-base (as gcc and friends are needed for SQLite)
* Implement GET endpoints for account_data in clientapi
* Nuke filtering for now...
* Revert "Implement GET endpoints for account_data in clientapi"

Scaling libraries
nfnt/resize (default)
Thumbnailing uses https://github.com/nfnt/resize by default which is a pure golang image scaling library relying on image codecs from the standard library. It is ISC-licensed.
It is multi-threaded and uses Lanczos3 so produces sharp images. Using Lanczos3 all the way makes it slower than some other approaches like bimg. (~845ms in total for pre-generating 32x32-crop, 96x96-crop, 320x240-scale, 640x480-scale and 800x600-scale from a given JPEG image on a given machine.)
See the sample below for image quality with nfnt/resize:
bimg (uses libvips C library)
Alternatively one can use go build -tags bimg
to use bimg from https://github.com/h2non/bimg (MIT-licensed) which uses libvips from https://github.com/jcupitt/libvips (LGPL v2.1+ -licensed). libvips is a C library and must be installed/built separately. See the github page for details. Also note that libvips in turn has dependencies with a selection of FOSS licenses.
bimg and libvips have significantly better performance than nfnt/resize but produce slightly less-sharp images. bimg uses a box filter for downscaling to within about 200% of the target scale and then uses Lanczos3 for the last bit. This is a much faster approach but comes at the expense of sharpness. (~295ms in total for pre-generating 32x32-crop, 96x96-crop, 320x240-scale, 640x480-scale and 800x600-scale from a given JPEG image on a given machine.)
