/**
 * @brief Functions for finding best endpoint format.
 *
 * We assume there are two independent sources of error in any given partition:
 *
 *   - Encoding choice errors
 *   - Quantization errors
 *
 * Encoding choice errors are caused by encoder decisions. For example:
 *
 *   - Using luminance instead of separate RGB components.
 *   - Using a constant 1.0 alpha instead of storing an alpha component.
 *   - Using RGB+scale instead of storing two full RGB endpoints.
 *
 * Quantization errors occur due to the limited precision we use for storage. These errors generally
 * scale with quantization level, but are not actually independent of color encoding. In particular:
 *
 *   - If we can use offset encoding then quantization error is halved.
 *   - If we can use blue-contraction then quantization error for RG is halved.
 *   - If we use HDR endpoints the quantization error is higher.
 *
 * Apart from these effects, we assume the error is proportional to the quantization step size.
