This is pretty much similar to the 8 bpp version, but in some senses
simpler. All input pixels are 16 bits, and all intermediates also fit
in 16 bits, so there's no lengthening/narrowing in the filter at all.
For the full 16 pixel wide filter, we can only process 4 pixels at a time
(using an implementation very much similar to the one for 8 bpp),
but we can do 8 pixels at a time for the 4 and 8 pixel wide filters with
a different implementation of the core filter.
Examples of relative speedup compared to the C version, from checkasm:

The speedup vs C code measured in checkasm is around 1.1-4x.
These numbers are quite inconclusive though, since the checkasm test
runs multiple filterings on top of each other, so later rounds might
end up with different codepaths (different decisions on which filter
to apply, based on input pixel differences).
Based on START_TIMER/STOP_TIMER wrapping around a few individual
functions, the speedup vs C code is around 2-4x.
