Valve Texture Format (vtf) support

[djcj]

The Valve Texture Format (VTF) is the proprietary texture format used by the Source engine.

It would be convenient if XnViewMP could handle this too, so I don't need to view .vtf files in VTFEdit.
You could use the LGPL licensed VTFLib for decoding: http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?c=177#p177
It will need some work to compile on Mac and Linux though.

Update:

There's a Qt plugin for it depending on a Linux-compatible port: https://github.com/panzi/qvtf

I've attached a vtf file and its png export for comparison.
