Nyall Dawson 8f902e7796 Implement manual locks on QgsSpatialIndex
Since libspatialindex is not thread safe on all platforms, and
have expressed desire to remove the thread safety that they DO
have on remaining platforms, it's safer and easier for us
to manually add locks to QgsSpatialIndex and be gauranteed that
this class is thread safe on all platforms and libspatialindex
versions.

Also improve docs for the class.

class QgsSpatialIndex
{
%Docstring
A spatial index for QgsFeature objects.
QgsSpatialIndex objects are implicitly shared and can be inexpensively copied.
.. note::
While the underlying libspatialindex is not thread safe on some platforms, the QgsSpatialIndex
class implements its own locks and accordingly, a single QgsSpatialIndex object can safely
be used across multiple threads.

public:
QgsSpatialIndex();
%Docstring
Constructor for QgsSpatialIndex. Creates an empty R-tree index.
%End
explicit QgsSpatialIndex( const QgsFeatureIterator &fi, QgsFeedback *feedback = 0 );
%Docstring
Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the iterator.
This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.
The optional ``feedback`` object can be used to allow cancelation of bulk feature loading. Ownership
of ``feedback`` is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds
that of the spatial index construction.
.. versionadded:: 2.8

~QgsSpatialIndex();
bool insertFeature( const QgsFeature &feature );
%Docstring
Adds a ``feature`` to the index.
%End
bool insertFeature( QgsFeatureId id, const QgsRectangle &bounds );
%Docstring
Add a feature ``id`` to the index with a specified bounding box.
:return: true if feature was successfully added to index.
.. versionadded:: 3.0
%End
bool deleteFeature( const QgsFeature &feature );
%Docstring
Removes a ``feature`` from the index.
%End
QList<QgsFeatureId> intersects( const QgsRectangle &rectangle ) const;
%Docstring
Returns a list of features with a bounding box which intersects the specified ``rectangle``.
.. note::
The intersection test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes only, so for non-point
geometry features it is necessary to manually test the returned features for exact geometry intersection
when required.
%End
QList<QgsFeatureId> nearestNeighbor( const QgsPointXY &point, int neighbors ) const;
%Docstring
Returns nearest neighbors to a ``point``. The number of neighbours returned is specified
by the ``neighbours`` argument.
.. note::
The nearest neighbour test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes only, so for non-point
geometry features this method is not guaranteed to return the actual closest neighbours.
%End
int refs() const;
%Docstring
get reference count - just for debugging!
