Description

PFM is an HDR interchange image format. Unlike OpenEXR it is very simple, unlike Radiance HDR it is lossless, and unlike both of them its presence can be guaranteed (no #ifdef here).

Software which supports PFM includes:

Photoshop
HDRShop
ImageMagick
Source game engine
The venerable Netpbm
Probably more

Whups!

Forgot to mention above that I've also improved the tooltip description of most image formats. (IMO the whole format selection UI needs to be reworked, but that will have to wait for another time.)

Sure we can add all sort of weird formats to blender, but it's not really helpful. We'd rather just use commonly used interchange formats by the industry.

Thanks for the patch anyway.
