/** \class SkPerlinNoiseShader
 
    SkPerlinNoiseShader creates an image using the Perlin turbulence function.
 
    It can produce tileable noise if asked to stitch tiles and provided a tile size.
    In order to fill a large area with repeating noise, set the stitchTiles flag to
    true, and render exactly a single tile of noise. Without this flag, the result
    will contain visible seams between tiles.
 
    The algorithm used is described here :
    http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/filters.html#feTurbulenceElement

/**
 *  This will construct Perlin noise of the given type (Fractal Noise or Turbulence).
 *
 *  Both base frequencies (X and Y) have a usual range of (0..1) and must be non-negative.
 *
 *  The number of octaves provided should be fairly small, with a limit of 255 enforced.
 *  Each octave doubles the frequency, so 10 octaves would produce noise from
 *  baseFrequency * 1, * 2, * 4, ..., * 512, which quickly yields insignificantly small
 *  periods and resembles regular unstructured noise rather than Perlin noise.
 *
 *  If tileSize isn't NULL or an empty size, the tileSize parameter will be used to modify
 *  the frequencies so that the noise will be tileable for the given tile size. If tileSize
 *  is NULL or an empty size, the frequencies will be used as is without modification.
