@brief Create signed distance field
@param input Input texture
@param output Output texture
@param rectangle Rectangle in output texture where to render
@param radius Max lookup radius in input texture
Converts binary image (stored in red channel of @p input) to signed distance
field (stored in red channel in @p rectangle of @p output). The purpose of this
function is to convert high-resolution binary image (such as vector artwork or
font glyphs) to low-resolution grayscale image. The image will then occupy much
less memory and can be scaled without aliasing issues. Additionally it provides
foundation for features like outlining, glow or drop shadow essentialy for free.
For each pixel inside @p rectangle the algorithm looks at corresponding pixel in
@p input and tries to find nearest pixel of opposite color in area given by
@p radius. Signed distance between the points is then saved as value of given
pixel in @p output. Value of `0` means that the pixel was originally colored
white and nearest black pixel is farther than @p radius, value of `1` means that
the pixel was originally black and nearest white pixel is farther than
@p radius. Values around `0.5` are around edges.
The resulting texture can be used with bilinear filtering. It can be converted
back to binary form in shader using e.g. GLSL `smoothstep()` function with step
around `0.5` to create antialiased edges. Or you can exploit the distance field
features to create many other effects. See also Shaders::DistanceFieldVectorShader.
