No configuration changes are necessary.

This involved removing alpha channel manipulation that was in place when switching
between GD and AGG rendering. It's automatic, no configuration necessary.

>>    * fuzzy label outlines for AGG

Adds OUTLINEWIDTH to LABEL object. Support is for AGG only. Documentation still
needs an update.

>>    * style-level opacity for AGG

Adds OPACITY keyword to the STYLE object. Documentation still needs an update.

>>    * quantization and palette support for PNGs and RGBA modes
