/** \ingroup core
 * \class QgsImageOperation
 * \brief Contains operations and filters which apply to QImages
 *
 * A set of optimised pixel manipulation operations and filters which can be applied
 * to QImages. All operations only apply to ARGB32 format images, and it is left up
 * to the calling procedure to ensure that any passed images are of the correct
 * format.
 *
 * Operations are written to either modify an image in place or return a new image, depending
 * on which is faster for the particular operation.
 *
 * \note Added in version 2.7
