/// Create a boolean mask using Otsu's method.
///
/// # Description
///
/// Creates a boolean mask using Nobuyuki Otsu's automatic threshold method. The
/// Otsu threshold value used to create the mask is calculated by maximizing the
/// between-class variance of the assumed bimodal distribution in the image
/// histogram.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `data`: The input n-dimensional image or array.
/// * `bins`: The number of bins to use to construct the image histogram for
///   Otsu's method. If `None`, then `bins = 256`.
///
/// # Returns
///
/// * `ArrayD<bool>`: A boolean array of the same shape as the input image
///   with pixels that are greater than the computed Otsu threshold value set
///   as `true` and pixels that are below the Otsu threshold value set as
///   `false`.
