Polarimetry Resampling

To permit the calculation of the Stokes parameters, polarimetry recipes resamples each frame using non-integer Cartesian offsets, or merely finds the offsets between frames to the nearest pixel and shifts the origin. The mosaic extends to include all pixels in contributing the frames, however, in practice there should be at most one pixel variation in dimensions.
