 * LBB has two versions:
 *
 *   A "soft" version, which shows a little less staircasing and a
 *   little more haloing, and which is a little more expensive to
 *   compute. We recommend this as the default.
 *
 *   A "sharp" version, which shows a little more staircasing and a
 *   little less haloing, which is a little cheaper (it uses 6 less
 *   comparisons and 12 less "? :").
 *
 * The only difference between the two is that the "soft" versions
 * uses local minima and maxima computed over 3x3 square blocks, and
 * the "sharp" version uses local minima and maxima computed over 3x3
 * crosses.
 *
 * If you want to use the "sharp" version, comment out the following

/*
 * LBB (Locally Bounded Bicubic) is a high quality nonlinear variant
 * of Catmull-Rom. Images resampled with LBB have much smaller halos
 * than images resampled with windowed sincs or other interpolatory
 * cubic spline filters. Specifically, LBB halos are narrower and the
 * over/undershoot amplitude is smaller. This is accomplished without
 * significantly affecting the smoothness of the result (compared to
 * Catmull-Rom).
 *
 * Another important property is that the resampled values are
 * contained within the range of nearby input values. Consequently, no
 * final clamping is needed to stay "in range" (e.g., 0-255 for
 * standard 8-bit images).
 *
 * LBB was developed by N. Robidoux and C. Racette at the Department
 * of Mathematics and Computer Science of Laurentian University in the
 * course of C. Racette's Masters thesis in Computational
 * Sciences. Preliminary work directly leading to the LBB method and
 * code was performed by C. Racette and N. Robidoux in the course of
 * her honours thesis, and by N. Robidoux, A. Turcotte and E. Daoust
 * during Google Summer of Code 2009 (through two awards made to GIMP
 * to improve GEGL).
 *
 * LBB is a novel method with the following properties:
 *
 * --LBB is a Hermite bicubic method: The bicubic surface is defined,
 *   one convex hull of four nearby input points at a time, using four
 *   point values, four x-derivatives, four y-derivatives, and four
 *   cross-derivatives.
 *
 * --The stencil for values in a square patch is the usual 4x4.
 *
 * --LBB is interpolatory.
 *
 * --It is C^1 with continuous cross derivatives.
 *
 * --When the limiters are inactive, LBB gives the same result as
 *   Catmull-Rom.
 *
 * --When used on binary images, LBB gives results similar to bicubic
 *   Hermite with all first derivatives---but not necessarily the
 *   cross derivatives (this last assertion needs to be double
 *   checked)--at input pixel locations set to zero.
 *
 * --The LBB reconstruction is locally bounded: Over each square
 *   patch, the surface is contained between the minimum and the
 *   maximum of the 16 nearest input pixel values.
 *
 * --Consequently, the LBB reconstruction is globally bounded between
 *   the very smallest input pixel value and the very largest input
 *   pixel value. It is not necessary to clamp results.
 *
 * The LBB method is based on the method of Ken Brodlie, Petros
 * Mashwama and Sohail Butt for constraining Hermite interpolants
 * between globally defined planes:
 *
 *   Visualization of surface data to preserve positivity and other
 *   simple constraints. Computer & Graphics, Vol. 19, Number 4, pages
 *   585-594, 1995. DOI: 10.1016/0097-8493(95)00036-C.
 *
 * Instead of forcing the reconstructed surface to lie between two
 * GLOBALLY defined planes, LBB constrains one patch at a time to lie
 * between LOCALLY defined planes. This is accomplished by
 * constraining the derivatives (x, y and cross) at each input pixel
 * location so that if the constraint was applied everywhere the
 * surface would fit between the min and max of the values at the 9
 * closest pixel locations. Because this is done with each of the four
 * pixel locations which define the bicubic patch, this forces the
 * reconstructed surface to lie between the min and max of the values
 * at the 16 closest values pixel locations. (Each corner defines its
 * own 3x3 subgroup of the 4x4 stencil. Consequently, the surface is
 * necessarily above the minimum of the four minima, which happens to
 * be the minimum over the 4x4. Similarly with the maxima.)
 *
 * The above paragraph described the "soft" version of LBB. The
 * "sharp" version is similar.
