[mad-user] MAD 0.12.5b available

[Rob Leslie]

Hot on the heels of 0.12.4b, MAD 0.12.5b is now available with even more
performance improvements.

This version incorporates the long-awaited Huffman decoding optimization that
performs requantization in the same step.

Many thanks to Andre McCurdy for his help that led to this release.

There are still a few more improvements to be made, but this probably
represents the bulk of what can be optimized for significant gains.
