#'@title Render Convolution FFT
#'
#'@description Takes an image and applies a convolution operation to it, using
#'a user-supplied or built-in kernel. This function uses a fast Fourier transform and
#'does the convolution in the frequency domain, so it should be faster for much larger kernels.
#'
#'@param image 3-layer RGB/4-layer RGBA array, `rayimg` class, or filename of an image.
#'@param filename Default `NULL`. The filename of the image to be saved. If this is not given, the image will be plotted instead.
#'@param kernel Default `gaussian`. By default, an 11x11 Gaussian kernel with a mean
#'of `0` and a standard deviation of `1`, running from `-kernel_extent` to `kernel_extent`.
#'If numeric, this will be the standard deviation of the normal distribution. If a
#'matrix, it will be used directly as the convolution kernel (but resized always to be an odd number
#'of columns and rows).
#'@param kernel_dim Default `c(11, 11)`. The dimension of the `gaussian` kernel. Ignored
#'if user specifies their own kernel.
#'@param kernel_extent Default `3`. Extent over which to calculate the kernel.
#'@param absolute Default `TRUE`. Whether to take the absolute value of the convolution.
#'@param pad Default `50`. Amount to pad the image to remove edge effects.
#'@param include_alpha Default `FALSE`. Whether to include the alpha channel in the convolution.
#'@param preview Default `FALSE`. Whether to plot the convolved image, or just to return the values.
#'@return A `rayimg` RGBA array.
