DDS File library

This library can be used to parse and save DDS (DirectDraw Surface <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectDraw_Surface>) files.

The initial version was written by:

Alexey Borzenkov (snaury@gmail.com)

All the initial work credits go to him! Thank you :)

This version uses structs instead of ctypes.
