All the github repos and sourceforge (
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/) seem to be in step; the last
change on sourceforge was on 12 February 2023 and the same goes for
libpng16 on github.com (https://github.com/glennrp/libpng).  "master" and
"tmp/develop" are up-to-date with libpng16.  I believe "master" and
"tmp/develop" are identical to libpng16 on github,com; commits 0/0
ahead/behind.

This is the way it should be; the two "master" branches on sourceforge and
github should both point to the current major release (libpng16).  I never
used sourceforge (well, not after the indemnification issue) and all
development was done on github; it is likely that from time to time the
branches on github pointed to something that was somewhat unstable.  Only
tagged revisions are fully tested.  "tmp/develop" is new and, I assume, was
created to avoid that.

I won't discuss the specific merge request here (discussions should go in a
"pull" request on github) beyond pointing out:

https://github.com/mschlaegl/libpng_rvv-doc
https://github.com/mschlaegl/libpng_rvv
https://github.com/glennrp/libpng/pull/405

Plus observing that I suspect third party testing of these (mschlaegl)
changes (preferably synced up to date with glennrp/libpng16) would
certainly help validate them.
