Title: add SDL_SavePNG, write files as png if possible, unless ending .bmp

This commit adds a "minimal interface to lib png to support writing
png files from SDL surfaces", to the codebase. It adds a save_image
function to namespace image, and this checks compiler flags to see
if lib png is available. The function will save as a png if png
support is included and save file name doesn't have bmp extension,
and otherwise it will save as a BMP as usual.

We already had lib png as a dependency to build the tools, just not
the main game. This commit changes cmake and scons but makes the
dependency only optional, changing nothing if lib png is not
available.
