We were previously ad-hoc scaling up the px count/width to get more
detail at lower uppx values. Add a log scaling sigmoid that range scales
between 1 < px_width < 16.
Add in a flag to use the mxmn OH tracer in `ohlc_flatten()` if desired.
Helpers to quickly convert ohlc struct-array sequences into lines
for consumption by the m4 downsampler. Strip trailing zero entries
from the `ds_m4()` output if found (avoids lines back to origin).
Obviously determining the x-range from indices was wrong and was the
reason for the incorrect (downsampled) output size XD. Instead correctly
determine the x range and start value from the *values of* the input
x-array. Pretty sure this makes the implementation nearly production
ready.
Relates to #109
All the refs are in the comments and original sample code from infinite
has been reworked to expect the input x/y arrays to already be sliced
(though we can later support passing in the start-end indexes if
desired).
The new routines are `ds_m4()` the python top level API and `_m4()` the
fast `numba` implementation.
