ALLEGRO_BITMAP(3).
The file type is determined by al_identify_bitmap_f(3).
If identification is not possible, the passed `ident' parameter, which
is a file name extension including the leading dot, is used as a
fallback, if it is not NULL.
.PP
The flags parameter is the same as for al_load_bitmap_flags(3).
.PP
Returns NULL on error.
The file remains open afterwards.
