| An ImageEncoder for the various versions of the BMP image file format.
Unless specified otherwise by the BMPDecodeParam object passed to the
constructor, Version 3 will be the default version used.
If the image to be encoded has an IndexColorModel and can be encoded
using upto 8 bits per pixel, the image will be written out as a Palette
color image with an appropriate number of bits per pixel. For example an
image having a 256 color IndexColorModel will be written out as a Palette
image with 8 bits per pixel while one with a 16 color palette will be
written out as a Palette image with 4 bits per pixel. For all other images,
the 24 bit image format will be used.
