Description
A snapshot of libpng included into jdk has version 1.2.18 (May 2007).
However, current version of libpng is 1.5.4, and there is number of
issues resolved there. We need to sync our snapshot with the current
state of the library.

Comments
No new regression test: the library upgrade does not introduce any change in the splashscreen behavior. Existing tests for spalshscreen (if any) should be used for verification.
