    may be represented by an array that is either

        1. fully populated
        2. a null pointer and/or a length of zero, which will be treated as a
           fully populated array of zeroes
        3. of length one, i.e. a constant, which will be treated as a fully
           populated array of that constant value

    The strides, sx, sy, sz, st, represent the step length, in bytes, between
    consecutive elements of the corresponding array. This makes it possible for
    proj_transform to handle transformation of a large class of application
    specific data structures, without necessarily understanding the data structure
    format, as in:

        typedef struct {double x, y; int quality_level; char surveyor_name[134];} XYQS;
        XYQS survey[345];
        double height = 23.45;
        PJ *P = {...};
        size_t stride = sizeof (XYQS);
        ...
        proj_transform (
            P, PJ_INV, sizeof(XYQS),
            &(survey[0].x), stride, 345,  (*  We have 345 eastings  *)
            &(survey[0].y), stride, 345,  (*  ...and 345 northings. *)
            &height, 1,                   (*  The height is the constant  23.45 m *)
            0, 0                          (*  and the time is the constant 0.00 s *)
        );

    This is similar to the inner workings of the pj_transform function, but the
    stride functionality has been generalized to work for any size of basic unit,
    not just a fixed number of doubles.

    In most cases, the stride will be identical for x, y,z, and t, since they will
    typically be either individual arrays (stride = sizeof(double)), or strided
    views into an array of application specific data structures (stride = sizeof (...)).

    But in order to support cases where x, y, z, and t come from heterogeneous
    sources, individual strides, sx, sy, sz, st, are used.

    Caveat: Since proj_transform does its work *in place*, this means that even the
    supposedly constants (i.e. length 1 arrays) will return from the call in altered
    state. Hence, remember to reinitialize between repeated calls.

    Return value: Number of transformations completed.
