Victor Toso bdeef8b292 mjpeg and jpeg encoder: fix alignment warnings
As the input line could be uint8_t*, uint16_t* or uint32_t*, changing
the default from uint8_t* to void* seems the correct choice to deal with
upcasting warnings.

Regarding chunks->data allocation, I quote Frediano explantion:
"Lines came from spice_bitmap_get_line. This function assume that bitmap
data is split among chunks each containing some lines
(always full lines). If chunk->data is allocated using malloc or similar
SHOULD (not 100% sure) be 4 bytes aligned so in our cases
(8, 16, 24 or 32 bit images) should be aligned enough.

All the casts unfortunately came from the fact we compute based on
pixel bytes to make it generic so we use uint8_t*."

and

"Looking at code looks like these chunks came from the virtual machine.
So the question is... why should the virtual machine give use some
not-pixel align data?
I would put a large comment to state that we assume VM send aligned
data, would be stupid for the VM to not align it!"

clang output:

   SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
   =============================================================

SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.

Installation
------------

The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
        --localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
  make
  sudo make install

Or to install into a private user specific location

  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
  make
  make install

The following mandatory dependancies are required in order to
build SPICE

    Spice protocol >= 0.9.0
    Pixman         >= 0.17.7
    OpenSSL
    libjpeg
    zlib
    Cyrus-SASL

The following optional dependancies increase the available
functionality

    GE Gui         >= 0.6.0,  < 0.7.0   (GUI app support)
    OpenGL                              (GUI app support)
    Alsa                                (Linux support)
    XRandR         >= 1.2               (X11 support)
    Xinerama       >= 1.0               (X11 support)
    libcacard      >= 0.1.2             (Smartcard support)

Communication
-------------

To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/

To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit

   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Spice

Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.

The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:

   http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
