/** @brief Main class for access to the flagger functionality.
*
* Software using the flagger should first create an instance of the @ref
* AOFlagger class, from which other actions can be initiated.
*
* ### Overview
*
* To flag a data set:
* - Create the AOFlagger instance
* - To use a stock strategy, call FindStrategyFile()
* - Load and parse the strategy with LoadStrategyFile(), once for each thread
* that will run.
* - Create data buffers with MakeImageSet()
* - For each correlated baseline or dish:
* - - Fill the images with data from this correlated baseline or dish
* - - Call Strategy::Run() with the created Strategy and ImageSet
* - - Process the data that was returned in the FlagMask.
*
* Optionally, it is possible to assemble quality statistics that can be written
* to the measurement set in the standard format that e.g. the @c aoqplot tool
* can read. To do this:
* - Create (once) a quality statistics object with MakeQualityStatistics().
* - After flagging a baseline, add it to the statistics object with
* QualityStatistics::CollectStatistics().
* A "correlator mask" can be specified that describes which flags are not due
* to RFI but caused by different things.
* - When a full set is processed, store the statistics with WriteStatistics().
*
* To flag multiple baselines, the Strategy and/or ImageSet objects can be
* reused.
*
* ### Thread safety
*
* Each Strategy object runs in its own context, and will not perform any
* unsynchronised writes to global variables. It is therefore safe to call
* Strategy::Run() from different threads, as long as each thread uses its own
* Strategy and ImageSet instances. QualityStatistics::CollectStatistics() is
* also thread safe, as long as different QualityStatistics instances are
* passed. For multi-threading, each thread should collect into its own
* QualityStatistics object. When finished, these can be combined with
* QualityStatistics::operator+=().
*
* It is safe to create multiple AOFlagger instances, but not recommended.
*
* ### Data order
*
* A common problem for integrating the flagger, is that data are stored in a
* different order: the time dimension
* is often the direction with the slowest increasing indices. Because the
* flagger needs one baseline at a time, this requires reordering the data. As
* long as the data fits in memory, this reordering is quite straightforward.
* When this is not the case, the data could be split into sub-bands and/or time
* windows. Next, these parts can be passed to the flagger and recombined later
* (if desired).
*
* To decide how to split, keep in mind that the flagger
* works best when both a lot of channels and a lot of
* timesteps are available. As an example: LOFAR splits into subbands of ~64
* channels, and the default processing with NDPPP loads as many timesteps as
* possible in memory for flagging. Typically, this means at least a few hundred
* of timesteps are processed at a time (with 1-3s per timestep), and this seems
* to work well.
*
* The 'aoflagger' executable flags by default on the full measurement set.
* For sets that are larger than memory, a mode is used in
* which the data is reordered to disk before the actual flagging starts. It
* turns out that this is much faster than reading each baseline directly from
* the set, and it simultaneously produces the best flagging accuracy, so if
* enough processing power is available to do so, this is another approach.
