/**
* A RenderableImage is a common interface for rendering-independent
* images (a notion which subsumes resolution independence). That is,
* images which are described and have operations applied to them
* independent of any specific rendering of the image. For example, a
* RenderableImage can be rotated and cropped in
* resolution-independent terms. Then, it can be rendered for various
* specific contexts, such as a draft preview, a high-quality screen
* display, or a printer, each in an optimal fashion.
*
* A RenderedImage is returned from a RenderableImage via the
* createRendering() method, which takes a RenderContext. The
* RenderContext specifies how the RenderedImage should be
* constructed. Note that it is not possible to extract pixels
* directly from a RenderableImage.
*
*
The createDefaultRendering() and createScaledRendering() methods are
* convenience methods that construct an appropriate RenderContext
* internally. All of the rendering methods may return a reference to a
* previously produced rendering.
