/**
 * A PSphereLens is a special nonlinear lens that doesn't correspond to any
 * real physical lenses.  It's primarily useful for generating 360-degree
 * wraparound images while avoiding the distortion associated with fisheye
 * images.
 *
 * A PSphereLens is similar to a cylindrical lens, except it is also curved in
 * the vertical direction.  This allows it to extend to both poles in the
 * vertical direction.  The mapping is similar to what many modeling packages
 * call a sphere mapping: the x coordinate is proportional to azimuth, while
 * the y coordinate is proportional to altitude.
