   *
   * A brief technical overview of how the BSDF rasterizer works
   * -----------------------------------------------------------
   *
   * [Notes]:
   *   * SDF stands for Signed Distance Field everywhere.
   *
   *   * BSDF stands for Bitmap to Signed Distance Field rasterizer.
   *
   *   * This renderer converts rasterized bitmaps to SDF.  There is another
   *     renderer called 'sdf', which generates SDF directly from outlines;
   *     see file `ftsdf.c` for more.
   *
   *   * The idea of generating SDF from bitmaps is taken from two research
   *     papers, where one is dependent on the other:
   *
   *     - Per-Erik Danielsson: Euclidean Distance Mapping
   *       http://webstaff.itn.liu.se/~stegu/JFA/Danielsson.pdf
   *
   *       From this paper we use the eight-point sequential Euclidean
   *       distance mapping (8SED).  This is the heart of the process used
   *       in this rasterizer.
   *
   *     - Stefan Gustavson, Robin Strand: Anti-aliased Euclidean distance transform.
   *       http://weber.itn.liu.se/~stegu/aadist/edtaa_preprint.pdf
   *
   *       The original 8SED algorithm discards the pixels' alpha values,
   *       which can contain information about the actual outline of the
   *       glyph.  This paper takes advantage of those alpha values and
   *       approximates outline pretty accurately.
   *
   *   * This rasterizer also works for monochrome bitmaps.  However, the
   *     result is not as accurate since we don't have any way to
   *     approximate outlines from binary bitmaps.
   *
   * ========================================================================
   *
   * Generating SDF from bitmap is done in several steps.
   *
   * (1) The only information we have is the bitmap itself.  It can
   *     be monochrome or anti-aliased.  If it is anti-aliased, pixel values
   *     are nothing but coverage values.  These coverage values can be used
   *     to extract information about the outline of the image.  For
   *     example, if the pixel's alpha value is 0.5, then we can safely
   *     assume that the outline passes through the center of the pixel.
   *
   * (2) Find edge pixels in the bitmap (see `bsdf_is_edge` for more).  For
   *     all edge pixels we use the Anti-aliased Euclidean distance
   *     transform algorithm and compute approximate edge distances (see
   *     `compute_edge_distance` and/or the second paper for more).
   *
   * (3) Now that we have computed approximate distances for edge pixels we
   *     use the 8SED algorithm to basically sweep the entire bitmap and
   *     compute distances for the rest of the pixels.  (Since the algorithm
   *     is pretty convoluted it is only explained briefly in a comment to
   *     function `edt8`.  To see the actual algorithm refer to the first
   *     paper.)
   *
   * (4) Finally, compute the sign for each pixel.  This is done in function
   *     `finalize_sdf`.  The basic idea is that if a pixel's original
   *     alpha/coverage value is greater than 0.5 then it is 'inside' (and
   *     'outside' otherwise).
   *
   * Pseudo Code:
   *
   * ```
   * b  = source bitmap;
   * t  = target bitmap;
   * dm = list of distances; // dimension equal to b
   *
   * foreach grid_point (x, y) in b:
   * {
   *   if (is_edge(x, y)):
   *     dm = approximate_edge_distance(b, x, y);
   *
   *   // do the 8SED on the distances
   *   edt8(dm);
   *
   *   // determine the signs
   *   determine_signs(dm):
   *
   *   // copy SDF data to the target bitmap
   *   copy(dm to t);
   * }
   *

     * This function, based on the paper presented by Stefan Gustavson and
     * Robin Strand, gets used to approximate edge distances from
     * anti-aliased bitmaps.
     *
     * The algorithm is as follows.
     *
     * (1) In anti-aliased images, the pixel's alpha value is the coverage
     *     of the pixel by the outline.  For example, if the alpha value is
     *     0.5f we can assume that the outline passes through the center of
     *     the pixel.
     *
     * (2) For this reason we can use that alpha value to approximate the real
     *     distance of the pixel to edge pretty accurately.  A simple
     *     approximation is `(0.5f - alpha)`, assuming that the outline is
     *     parallel to the x or y~axis.  However, in this algorithm we use a
     *     different approximation which is quite accurate even for
     *     non-axis-aligned edges.
     *
     * (3) The only remaining piece of information that we cannot
     *     approximate directly from the alpha is the direction of the edge.
     *     This is where we use Sobel's operator to compute the gradient of
     *     the pixel.  The gradient give us a pretty good approximation of
     *     the edge direction.  We use a 3x3 kernel filter to compute the
     *     gradient.
     *
     * (4) After the above two steps we have both the direction and the
     *     distance to the edge which is used to generate the Signed
     *     Distance Field.
