 * Computes the gradient of an image using directional derivatives.
 * The directional derivative at each pixel location is computed by
 * convolution with a first-order derivative operator.
 *
 * The second template parameter defines the value type used in the
 * derivative operator (defaults to float).  The third template
 * parameter defines the value type used for output image (defaults to
 * float).  The output image is defined as a covariant vector image
 * whose value type is specified as this third template parameter.
