image/color: tweak the formula for converting to gray.

This makes grayModel and gray16Model in color.go use the exact same
formula as RGBToYCbCr in ycbcr.go. They were the same formula in theory,
but in practice the color.go versions used a divide by 1000 and the
ycbcr.go versions used a (presumably faster) shift by 16.

This implies the nice property that converting an image.RGBA to an
image.YCbCr and then taking only the Y channel is equivalent to
converting an image.RGBA directly to an image.Gray.

The difference between the two formulae is non-zero, but small:

The Go Programming Language

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html

Note that we do not accept pull requests and that we use the issue tracker for bug reports and proposals only. Please ask questions on https://forum.golangbridge.org or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
