    \brief General image iterator definition and implementations.

<p>
    The following tables describe the general requirements for image iterators
    and their iterator traits. The iterator implementations provided here
    may be used for any image data type that stores its
    data as a linear array of pixels. The array will be interpreted as a
    row-major matrix with a particular width.

/** \brief Simulate an image where each pixel contains its coordinate.

    CoordinateIterator used to be a separate class,
    but has now become an alias for \ref vigra::Diff2D. This is possible because
    Diff2D now provides all the necessary functionality.

    CoordinateIterator behaves like a read-only \ref vigra::ImageIterator for
    an image in which each pixel contains its coordinate. This is useful for
    algorithms that need access to the current pixel's location.
    For example, you can use CoordinateIterator/Diff2D to
    find the center of mass of an image region. To implement this,
    we first need a functor for center-of-mass calculations:

    \code

    struct CenterOfMassFunctor
    {
        CenterOfMassFunctor()
        : x(0.0), y(0.0), size(0)
        {}

        void operator()(Diff2d const& diff)
        {
            ++size;
            x += diff.x;
            y += diff.y;
        }

        float xCenter() const
        {   return x / size; }

        float yCenter() const
        {   return y / size; }

        float x;
        float y;
        int size;
    };
    \endcode

    Using this functor, we find the center of mass like so:

    \code
    vigra::BImage img(w,h);
    ... // mark a region in the image with '1', background with '0'

    CenterOfMassFunctor center;

    vigra::inspectImageIf(
        srcIterRange(Diff2D(), Diff2D() + img.size()),
        srcImage(img),
        center);

    std::cout << "Center of mass: " << center.xCenter() <<
                                ", " << center.yCenter() << std::endl;
    \endcode
