Changes from version 1.6.42 to version 1.6.43
---------------------------------------------
* Fixed the row width check in png_check_IHDR().
This corrected a bug that was specific to the 16-bit platforms,
and removed a spurious compiler warning from the 64-bit builds.
(Reported by Jacek Caban; fixed by John Bowler)
* Added eXIf chunk support to the push-mode reader in pngpread.c.

* Added contrib/pngexif for the benefit of the users who would like
to inspect the content of eXIf chunks.
* Added contrib/conftest/basic.dfa, a basic build-time configuration.

* Fixed a preprocessor condition in pngread.c that broke build-time
configurations like contrib/conftest/pngcp.dfa.

* Added CMake build support for LoongArch LSX.

* Fixed a CMake build error that occurred under a peculiar state of the
dependency tree. This was a regression introduced in libpng-1.6.41.

* Marked the installed libpng headers as system headers in CMake.

* Updated the build support for RISCOS.

* Updated the makefiles to allow cross-platform builds to initialize
conventional make variables like AR and ARFLAGS.
* Added various improvements to the CI scripts in areas like version
consistency verification and text linting.
* Added version consistency verification to pngtest.c also.
