In previous implementation we calculated `src_color` position every time:
```
        for (x=0; x<src_width; x++)
        {
            ARGB dst_color, src_color;
            src_color = ((ARGB*)(src + src_stride * y))[x];
```

With new implementation we are calculating `src_color` position only once (before `x` loop), and we just iterating the `src_color++`:
```
        ARGB *src_color = ((ARGB*)(src + src_stride * y));
        for (x=0; x<src_width; x++)
        {
...

src_color++;
        }
```
It is much faster (avoiding not needed multiplications), especially for wide images.
