unless I'm missing something, I don't think you can do that in 1.1.5
(unless you want to do the dithering by hand).

the core library can do dithering both to fixed palettes and optimal
palettes, but PIL's convert method only exposes the "dither to web
palette" and "map to nearest N color" variants.

(if you want to do manual dithering, use quantize(32) on the source
image to get a reference image, take the difference between them,
and propagate the errors in some suitable way)
