tetra3 0.5.1

Rust implementation of Tetra3: Fast and robust star plate solver
Documentation
//! Lens distortion models for correcting optical distortion in star images.
//!
//! Distortion is applied by **undistorting** observed centroid pixel coordinates
//! before they are converted to unit vectors for pattern matching and solving.
//! This means the distortion correction is applied once, up front, and benefits
//! the entire solver pipeline (pattern hashing, verification, and refinement).
//!
//! # Supported models
//!
//! - [`Distortion::Radial`] — classic radial distortion with up to 3 coefficients (k1, k2, k3)
//! - [`Distortion::Polynomial`] — SIP-like polynomial distortion with arbitrary cross-terms
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! Distortion models can be:
//!
//! 1. **Provided** to the solver via [`SolveConfig::distortion`](crate::SolveConfig) if the
//!    distortion is already known (e.g. from a calibration procedure or FITS header).
//!
//! 2. **Fitted** from solve results using [`fit_radial_distortion`] or
//!    [`fit_polynomial_distortion`]. These functions perform iterative robust
//!    fitting with sigma-clipping to reject mismatched stars.
