/**
 * Defines a 4-element quaternion that represents the orientation of an object in space.
 *
 * Quaternions are typically used as a replacement for euler angles and rotation matrices as a way to achieve smooth
 * interpolation and avoid gimbal lock.
 *
 * Note that this quaternion class does not automatically keep the quaternion normalized. Therefore, care must be taken
 * to normalize the quaternion when necessary, by calling the normalize method. This class provides three methods for
 * doing quaternion interpolation: lerp, slerp, and squad.
 *
 * lerp (linear interpolation): the interpolation curve gives a straight line in quaternion space. It is simple and fast
 * to compute. The only problem is that it does not provide constant angular velocity. Note that a constant velocity is
 * not necessarily a requirement for a curve; slerp (spherical linear interpolation): the interpolation curve forms a
 * great arc on the quaternion unit sphere. Slerp provides constant angular velocity; squad (spherical spline
 * interpolation): interpolating between a series of rotations using slerp leads to the following problems:
 * - the curve is not smooth at the control points;
 * - the angular velocity is not constant;
 * - the angular velocity is not continuous at the control points.
 *
 * Since squad is continuously differentiable, it remedies the first and third problems mentioned above.
 * The slerp method provided here is intended for interpolation of principal rotations. It treats +q and -q as the same
 * principal rotation and is at liberty to use the negative of either input. The resulting path is always the shorter
 * arc.
 *
 * The lerp method provided here interpolates strictly in quaternion space. Note that the resulting path may pass
 * through the origin if interpolating between a quaternion and its exact negative.
 *
 * As an example, consider the following quaternions:
 *
 * q1 = (0.6, 0.8, 0.0, 0.0),
 * q2 = (0.0, 0.6, 0.8, 0.0),
 * q3 = (0.6, 0.0, 0.8, 0.0), and
 * q4 = (-0.8, 0.0, -0.6, 0.0).
 * For the point p = (1.0, 1.0, 1.0), the following figures show the trajectories of p using lerp, slerp, and squad.
