The space was removed so it doesn't waste a line.
The decode comment was removed because it was out of place. What happens
there is an inverse wavelet transform, but no decoding actually occurs
since every single coefficient has already been read.
The stride needs to get changed during interlacing (only on the output,
transforms are still done on half height) so there's no getting away from
actually changing the next line.
Moved the s->diracdsp.put_signed_rect_clamped outside the loop as it should
boost performance by a bit since it gets called only once instead of
height/16 times.
Really, the only single major change here is the
s->diracdsp.put_signed_rect_clamped having its stride doubled on interlaced
(required for this patch to work) and being moved outside the loop. And I'd
say sending a separate patch for moving it outside the loop and removing a
space and a wrong comment creates too much noise.

Don't know how/if it's even possible. I need to store the field somewhere
and then copy it. I asked on IRC if it's even possible to reuse an AVFrame
from a previous frame but got suggested to just set up a ref frame and
unref it later, which is what I did.
