#' Map data values to colours
#'
#' If no `col` is provided, the default image palette is used. The density
#' can be controlled with `n` and the mapping  with the optional
#' `breaks`. If `breaks` is included as well as `n`, `n` is ignored.
#'
#' The function `image_pal()` only returns hex character string colours. The function
#' `image_raster()` will map a raster of numeric values to an RGB 3-layer (channel) raster brick, and
#' `image_stars()` similarly for a 3-dimensional stars object.
#'
#' Please note that the expansion to 3-channels is a fairly wasteful thing to do, the overall data is expanded
#' from a single layer to three but this faciliates a specific task of creating
#' textures for 3D mapping, and this is the only way to do it currently. It's also useful in
#' other situations, for controlling exactly the kind of plots we can achieve and for exporting
#' to image formats such as 'GeoTIFF' or 'PNG'.
#' @param x numeric values, raster object (single layer only) or stars object (single variable, 2D array only)
#' @param col function to generate colours, or a vector of hex colours
#' @param ... ignored
#' @param breaks optionally used to specify colour mapping
#' @param n optionally used to specify density of colours from `col` (ignored if `breaks` is set)
#' @param zlim numeric range to clamp values to an absolute scale (ignored if `breaks` is set)
#' @return for `image_pal()` a vector of hex colours, for `image_raster` and `image_stars` a raster or
#' stars object with 3 channel RGB (range 0,255)
