advanced_image_processing: Created function local_maxima_properties. This does some of the work present in wavelet_denoising as it finds local_maxima and creates a NumPy structured array to contain the contents just as region_properties does.
advanced_image_processing: Replaced some code in wavelet_denoising with a call to local_maxima_properties.
advanced_image_processing: Created fix for NumPy failure to broadcast in merge_neuron_sets.
advanced_image_processing: Fixed bug in gaussian approximation of the merged neuron as it ignored the singleton first dimension.
advanced_image_processing: Area todo was already resolved. So, it has been removed.
