Custom image interpolation kernels

When interpolation is set to ‘custom’, the convolution kernel provided by custom_interpolation_kernel_2d is used to convolve the image on the gpu. In this example, we use custom gaussian kernels of arbitrary size, a sharpening kernel and a ridge detection kernel.

Under the hood, this works by by sampling the image texture with linear interpolation in a regular grid (of size = of the kernel) around each fragment, and then using the weights in the kernel to add up the final fragment value.
