Managed version of content-aware resizing about imagesharp HOT 8 OPEN

A managed implementation would be amazing! 😄 I've been really unhappy with the way I've had to implement seam carving at the moment.

Would this be something you would be interested in adding to V3?

I'am not interested in this library in near future :( I'am doing another things.

@KvanTTT how difficult would it to port?

@dampee, I think it is not difficult. The only thing my library is using unsafe code snippent for performance reason (this may not compatible with Mono and some devices, but it can be removed). Are they allowed in ImageProcessor?

@KvanTTT There's tons of unsafe code in Corefx https://github.com/dotnet/corefxlab/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=unsafe so I'm not opposed to using it in ImageProcessor.

I avoided it before as I was targeting some old PCL stuff (WP8) which didn't support it but I'm sure now there are places within my codebase which could benefit. Would need lots of testing to determine where though.

@dampee If you're gonna attempt a port I would test unsafe vs safe blocks to see whether there is a speedup since we're not using System.Drawing anymore. It may be the case that it could even slow things down.

Don't worry (yet). I'll touch first some simple things by the end of the year. Just looking around what I can do. (But too busy right now for customers)

Not sure if seam carving would work for my issue (i.e. content-aware resizing) - it seems SC can change (redesign) e.g. a car so it no longer looks like the original, if the there's too much repetition in the image.
