we had a custom wrapper for bandjoin(), but bandrank(), a function with
an almost identical interface, did not ... this was confusing
bandrank() now has a custom wrapper too ... this breaks API
unfortunately, but hopefully very few people were using this thing and
it's better to make this change as soon as possible
before, im.cast(uchar, shift = true) where im was float and tagged as
rgb16 would not shift the image, since it's unclear how much to shift a float
type by
now we do two casts: first, we guess the numeric range from the
interpretation, so rgb16 would be ushort, so we cast float->ushort;
second, we cast to the target type and do the shift on the way

thanks apacheark
it was a bit granular (since it was designed for offset work), make sharpen
easier to adjust for smaller effects
- new 'sigma' parameter
- greater parameter range
- more self-tests
oh argh class and instance methods are in the same namespace, so we have
to rename the instance one as ibandjoin
also, start adding a test for arrayjoin
oops! typo ... also an off-by-one issue for larger stencils
more error checking in interpolators
fix rounding in nohalo/lbb ... they were rounding to nearest in the
interpolator, rather than using floor. This broke assumptions about
stencil position elsewhere. The right way to do centre convention is to offset
the whole input by 0.5 pixels.
small improvements to vips_resize() quality:
* turn down the anti-alias filter a little so we don't smudge out texture
* don't do the final sharpening pass if we skipped the anti-alias filter
* fix a >/>= mixup which meant we didn't sharpen for small resizes
