Looking at the following code

im = im.convert("RGBA")
compare = im.convert("RGBA")
assert_image_similar(im, compare, 5)

it is readily apparent that it should read compare = compare.convert("RGBA").

Changing this does cause a file comparison to fail

"pal8nonsquare.bmp": "pal8nonsquare-v.png",

However, the test images have both pal8nonsquare-e.png and pal8nonsquare-v.png. Changing the test to compare against pal8nonsquare-e.png causes it to pass. https://github.com/jsummers/bmpsuite/blob/master/html/bmpsuite.html describes the difference as

Image editors can be expected to
leave the image “squashed”; image viewers should
consider stretching it to its correct proportions.

While that's not the clearest distinction for Pillow, this PR is just editing our test suite. Since we favour backwards compatibility, I'm going to choose pal8nonsquare-e.png, saying that Pillow is an 'image editor', since we currently leave the image squashed.

While I'm here, I'm also going to remove a number of comparison BMP images that we don't actually use, and the BMP HTML documentation.
