[pygame] AdvanceMAME Scale2x

[Pete Shinners <pete@shinners.org>]

i've implemented the "AdvanceMAME Scale2x" image doubling algorithm. It is
unbelievably smart at scaling up images with simple colors.

I did a couple test images while i was playing with it so you can see what
to expect. But remember, this really only works on basic graphic images,
where there are solid colors. photgraphs and antialiased edges end up
working like a regular unfiltered scale. You can see it works just as good
using it multiple times, to create 4x or 8x images.
