/*! \page sm_insolidangle Selection method: insolidangle
 *
 * This method selects a subset of particles that are located in a solid
 * angle defined by a center and a set of points.
 * The solid angle is constructed as a union of small cones whose axis
 * goes through the center and a point.
 * So there's such a cone for each position, and a
 * point is in the solid angle if it lies within any of these cones.
 * The width of the cones can be adjusted.
 *
 * \internal
 *
 * The method is implemented by partitioning the surface of the unit sphere
 * into bins using the polar coordinates \f$(\theta, \phi)\f$.
 * The partitioning is always uniform in the zenith angle \f$\theta\f$,
 * while the partitioning in the azimuthal angle \f$\phi\f$ varies.
 * For each reference point, the unit vector from the center to the point
 * is constructed, and it is stored in all the bins that overlap with the
 * cone defined by the point.
 * Bins that are completely covered by a single cone are marked as such.
 * Checking whether a point is in the solid angle is then straightforward
 * with this data structure: one finds the bin that corresponds to the point,
 * and checks whether the bin is completely covered. If it is not, one
 * additionally needs to check whether it is within the specified cutoff of
 * any of the stored points.
 *
 * The above construction gives quite a lot of flexibility for constructing
 * the bins without modifying the rest of the code.
 * The current (quite inefficient) implementation is discussed below, but
 * it should be optimized to get the most out of the code.
 *
 * The current way of constructing the bins constructs the boundaries
 * statically: the bin size in the zenith direction is set to approximately
 * half the angle cutoff, and the bins in the azimuthal direction have
 * sizes such that the shortest edge of the bin is approximately equal to
 * half the angle cutoff (for the regions close to the poles, a single bin
 * is used).
 * Each reference point is then added to the bins as follows:
 *  -# Find the zenith angle range that is spanned by the cone centered at the
 *     point (this is simple addition/subtraction).
 *  -# Calculate the maximal span of the cone in the azimuthal direction using
 *     the formula
 *     \f[\sin \Delta \phi_{max} = \frac{\sin \alpha}{\sin \theta}\f]
 *     (a sine formula in spherical coordinates),
 *     where \f$\alpha\f$ is the width of the cone and \f$\theta\f$ is the
 *     zenith angle of the cone center.
 *     Similarly, the zenith angle at which this extent is achieved is
 *     calculated using
 *     \f[\cos \theta_{max} = \frac{\cos \theta}{\cos \alpha}\f]
 *     (Pythagoras's theorem in spherical coordinates).
 *  -# For each zenith angle bin that is at least partially covered by the
 *     cone, calculate the span of the cone at the edges using
 *     \f[\sin^2 \frac{\Delta \phi}{2} = \frac{\sin^2 \frac{\alpha}{2} - \sin^2 \frac{\theta - \theta'}{2}}{\sin \theta \sin \theta'}\f]
 *     (distance in spherical geometry),
 *     where \f$\theta'\f$ is the zenith angle of the bin edge.
 *  -# Using the values calculated above, loop through the azimuthal bins that
 *     are partially or completely covered by the cone and update them.
 *
 * The total solid angle (for covered fraction calculations) is estimated by
 * taking the total area of completely covered bins plus
 * half the area of partially covered bins.
 * The second one is an approximation, but should give reasonable estimates
 * for the averages as well as in cases where the bin size is small.
