Fix "privacy-breach-w3c-valid-html" lintian error.
Don't ping an external site when loading documentation
pages since this can be used to track user activity.
These links are also broken, since they depend on the
referer header, which browsers no longer send to insecure
pages for similar privacy reasons. That aspect could be
addressed by using https urls for the validator site.

Adds two new apodization functions that seem to perform better than
the apodization functions currently in the codebase and fixes three
existing windows as well.
Its important to note that this patch only affects the encoder stage
that evaluates various possible predictors. Audio encoded with these
new windows will still decode with existing legacy decoders.
= Theory =
These functions are used to window the audio data at the predictor
stage. These news functions enable the use of only part of the signal
to generate a predictor. This helps because short transients can
introduce noise into the predictor. The predictor becomes very good
at prediciting one part of the signal, instead of mediocre for the
whole block.

The html documentation was diff'ed to the current website pages
and all difference were merged into the page they weren't yet
incorporated. This includes lots of small fixes and
improvements.

For some reason all documentation lists the max rice partition
order to be 16, while the maximum is 15. This fixes flac -H, the
man page and the HTML source code documentation
