/*
   Final stage of contour processing.
   Three variants possible:
      1. Contour, which was retrieved using border following, is added to
         the contour tree. It is the case when the icvSubstituteContour function
         was not called after retrieving the contour.

      2. New contour, assigned by icvSubstituteContour function, is added to the
         tree. The retrieved contour itself is removed from the storage.
         Here two cases are possible:
            2a. If one deals with plane variant of algorithm
                (hierarchical strucutre is not reconstructed),
                the contour is removed completely.
            2b. In hierarchical case, the header of the contour is not removed.
                It's marked as "link to contour" and h_next pointer of it is set to
                new, substituting contour.

      3. The similar to 2, but when NULL pointer was assigned by
         icvSubstituteContour function. In this case, the function removes
         retrieved contour completely if plane case and
         leaves header if hierarchical (but doesn't mark header as "link").
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The 1st variant can be used to retrieve and store all the contours from the image
      (with optional convertion from chains to contours using some approximation from
      restriced set of methods). Some characteristics of contour can be computed in the
      same pass.

      The usage scheme can look like:

      icvContourScanner scanner;
      CvMemStorage*  contour_storage;
      CvSeq*  first_contour;
      CvStatus  result;

      ...

      icvCreateMemStorage( &contour_storage, block_size/0 );

      ...

      cvStartFindContours
              ( img, contour_storage,
                header_size, approx_method,
                [external_only,]
                &scanner );

      for(;;)
      {
          [CvSeq* contour;]
          result = icvFindNextContour( &scanner, &contour/0 );

          if( result != CV_OK ) break;

          // calculate some characteristics
          ...
      }

      if( result < 0 ) goto error_processing;

      cvEndFindContours( &scanner, &first_contour );
      ...

      -----------------------------------------------------------------

      Second variant is more complex and can be used when someone wants store not
      the retrieved contours but transformed ones. (e.g. approximated with some
      non-default algorithm ).

      The scheme can be the as following:

      icvContourScanner scanner;
      CvMemStorage*  contour_storage;
      CvMemStorage*  temp_storage;
      CvSeq*  first_contour;
      CvStatus  result;

      ...

      icvCreateMemStorage( &contour_storage, block_size/0 );
      icvCreateMemStorage( &temp_storage, block_size/0 );

      ...

      icvStartFindContours8uC1R
              ( <img_params>, temp_storage,
                header_size, approx_method,
                [retrival_mode],
                &scanner );

      for(;;)
      {
          CvSeq* temp_contour;
          CvSeq* new_contour;
          result = icvFindNextContour( scanner, &temp_contour );

          if( result != CV_OK ) break;

          <approximation_function>( temp_contour, contour_storage,
                                    &new_contour, <parameters...> );

          icvSubstituteContour( scanner, new_contour );
          ...
      }

      if( result < 0 ) goto error_processing;

      cvEndFindContours( &scanner, &first_contour );
      ...

      ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Third method to retrieve contours may be applied if contours are irrelevant
      themselves but some characteristics of them are used only.
      The usage is similar to second except slightly different internal loop

      for(;;)
      {
          CvSeq* temp_contour;
          result = icvFindNextContour( &scanner, &temp_contour );

          if( result != CV_OK ) break;

          // calculate some characteristics of temp_contour

          icvSubstituteContour( scanner, 0 );
          ...
      }

      new_storage variable is not needed here.

      Two notes.
      1. Second and third method can interleave. I.e. it is possible to
         remain contours that satisfy with some criteria and reject others.
         In hierarchic case the resulting tree is the part of original tree with
         some nodes absent. But in the resulting tree the contour1 is a child
         (may be indirect) of contour2 iff in the original tree the contour1
         is a child (may be indirect) of contour2.

//    Name: cvFindContours
//    Purpose:
//      Finds all the contours on the bi-level image.
//    Context:
//    Parameters:
//      img  - source image.
//             Non-zero pixels are considered as 1-pixels
//             and zero pixels as 0-pixels.
//      step - full width of source image in bytes.
//      size - width and height of the image in pixels
//      storage - pointer to storage where will the output contours be placed.
//      header_size - header size of resulting contours
//      mode - mode of contour retrieval.
//      method - method of approximation that is applied to contours
//      first_contour - pointer to first contour pointer
//    Returns:
//      CV_OK or error code
//    Notes:
//F*/
