Ok, emacs-ffi is emacs module that implements FFI to shared libraries.
wand-mode is package that implements ffi bindings (using emacs-ffi module) to
libMagickWand and on top of them powerful image editor is written
wand-mode does many trickery on images in very fast fasion, and it needs method
to display previews/results in Emacs buffer. Result of image manipulation is
raw rgb(a) data that seats in user-ptr available from imagemagick without any
copying. I want `create-image’ with :format ‘image/x-rgb to accept this
user-ptr as data to make image creation fast
Method proposed by Stefan with make_string/encode-coding-string works, but its
speed is far from being usable on big images. There is no method just to use
data as-is to make things fast
