/// \ingroup ImageViewModel PixelBasedModel
/// \brief A lightweight object that interprets memory as a 2D array of pixels. Models ImageViewConcept,PixelBasedConcept,HasDynamicXStepTypeConcept,HasDynamicYStepTypeConcept,HasTransposedTypeConcept
///
/// Image view consists of a pixel 2D locator (defining the mechanism for navigating in 2D)
/// and the image dimensions.
///
/// Image views to images are what ranges are to STL containers. They are lightweight objects,
/// that don't own the pixels. It is the user's responsibility that the underlying data remains
/// valid for the lifetime of the image view.
///
/// Similar to iterators and ranges, constness of views does not extend to constness of pixels.
/// A const \p image_view does not allow changing its location in memory (resizing, moving) but does
/// not prevent one from changing the pixels. The latter requires an image view whose value_type
/// is const.
///
/// Images have interfaces consistent with STL 1D random access containers, so they can be used
/// directly in STL algorithms like:
/// \code
///  std::fill(img.begin(), img.end(), red_pixel);
/// \endcode
///
/// In addition, horizontal, vertical and 2D random access iterators are provided.
///
/// Note also that \p image_view does not require that its element type be a pixel. It could be
/// instantiated with a locator whose \p value_type models only \p Regular. In this case the image
/// view models the weaker RandomAccess2DImageViewConcept, and does not model PixelBasedConcept.
/// Many generic algorithms don't require the elements to be pixels.
