For an example, see the map2() method.

Builds a change of basis matrix that transforms points and directions from canonical space to another space.

origin is the origin of the child space. i, j and k are all required to be normalized; They are the unit basis vector along the target space x-axis, y-axis and z-axis respectively, expressed in canonical-space coordinates.

    let origin = Vec3::new(1_f32, 2., 3.);
    let i = Vec3::unit_z();

    // `local_to_basis` and `basis_to_local` undo each other

    let r = Mat4::rotation_3d(3., Vec3::new(2_f32, 1., 3.));

    let j = r.mul_direction(Vec3::unit_y());
    let k = r.mul_direction(Vec3::unit_z());

    assert_relative_eq!(origin,   m.mul_point(Vec3::zero()));
    assert_relative_eq!(origin+i, m.mul_point(Vec3::unit_x()));
    assert_relative_eq!(origin+j, m.mul_point(Vec3::unit_y()));
