It's trivial for me to implement those chunks and both are pretty much
essential for producing correct test files, cLLI for PQ encoding with sRGB
data (which would come out very dark without cLLI since the PQ 1.0
corresponds to 2000cd/m2; this is assuming I understand H273).  mDCV when
data with a different white point is encoded in a colour space, particular
colour space 10 (SMPTE ST 428-1).  Without those chunks the display will be
confusing in a conformant decoder; bad for testing.

I also just pointed out to ChrisB that the libpng release and development
branches are currently broken and write cICP in the wrong place then, under
certain circumstances, reject it on read.  Beware of untested software :-)
