#' Update lasso information
#'
#' Update the lasso information based on the incoming click object from the application.
#'
#' @param click A Shiny click object.
#' @param previous \code{NULL} if no waypoints exist, otherwise a list produced by this function.
#' @param tol A numeric scalar specifying the tolerance to detect if the next click closes the lasso.
#'
#' @return A list containing:
#' \describe{
#' \item{\code{coord}:}{A numeric matrix of lasso waypoint coordinates, where each row is a waypoint.
#' The first column is the x-axis coordinate and the second column is the y-axis coordinate.}
#' \item{\code{closed}:}{A logical scalar specifying whether the lasso is closed.}
#' \item{\code{panelvar1}, \code{panelvar2}:}{Strings specifying the facet on which the lasso occurs.}
#' \item{\code{mapping}:}{A list containing further information about the variables used on the x- and y-axes and for faceting.}
#' }
#'
#' @details
#' A click close to the first waypoint will close the lasso.
#' The tolerance is defined as a product of \code{tol} and the x-/y-axis range.

#' Test if Shiny brushes are identical
#'
#' Check whether brush coordinates have actually changed between two Shiny brush objects.

#' @param old_brush A Shiny brush object with the elements \code{xmin}, \code{xmax}, \code{ymin} and \code{ymax}.

#' @details
#' This function checks whether there are any significant differences in the rectangular regions defined by two Shiny brushes.

#'
#' @return A logical scalar indicating whether the brushes are identical.
