Use DDS instead of PNG for textures

Registered by Erik Ogenvik

PNG isn't suitable for textures for 3d objects. DDS/DXT is much better, for many reasons.
Newer versions of ImageMagick now has support for writing DDS; we should therefore transfer to using DDS by default as well as converting all existing PNG textures to DDS.
