Nigel Tao c2023a0791 image/color: tweak the YCbCr to RGBA conversion formula.
Before, calling the RGBA method of YCbCr color would return red values
in the range [0x0080, 0xff80]. After, the range is [0x0000, 0xffff] and
is consistent with what Gray colors' RGBA method returns. In particular,
pure black, pure white and every Gray color in between are now exactly
representable as a YCbCr color.

This fixes a regression from Go 1.4 (where YCbCr{0x00, 0x80, 0x80} was
no longer equivalent to pure black), introduced by golang.org/cl/8073 in
the Go 1.5 development cycle. In Go 1.4, the +0x80 rounding was not
noticable when Cb == 0x80 && Cr == 0x80, because the YCbCr to RGBA
conversion truncated to 8 bits before multiplying by 0x101, so the
output range was [0x0000, 0xffff].

The TestYCbCrRoundtrip fuzzy-match tolerance grows from 1 to 2 because
the YCbCr to RGB conversion now maps to an ever-so-slightly larger
range, along with the usual imprecision of accumulating rounding errors.

Also s/int/int32/ in ycbcr.go. The conversion shouldn't overflow either
way, as int is always at least 32 bits, but it does make it clearer that
the computation doesn't depend on sizeof(int).

Fixes #11691
