ImageData (and Images loaded from them) now support different data formats. Resolves issue #1048.

Currently exposed formats are rgba8 and rgba16 (normalized), and rgba16f and rgba32f (floating-point). Some systems, especially mobile ones, won't support every format when creating a love.graphics Image. Use love.graphics.getRawImageFormats to check for support.

love.image.newImageData now takes an optional format parameter as its third argument when creating an empty sized ImageData. It defaults to rgba8.

16-bit PNGs, .hdr images, and floating-point OpenEXR images can now be loaded via love.image.newImageData and love.graphics.newImage.
