Perform a gray value opening with a selected mask.
gray_opening_shape applies a gray value opening to the input image Image with the structuring element of shape MaskShape. The mask's offset values are 0 and its horizontal and vertical size is defined by MaskHeight and MaskWidth. The resulting image is returned in ImageOpening. If the parameters MaskHeight or MaskWidth are even, they are changed to the next larger odd value. In case of the values 'rhombus' and 'octagon' for the MaskShape control parameter, MaskHeight and MaskWidth must be equal. The parameter value 'octagon' for MaskShape denotes an equilateral octagonal mask which is a suitable approximation for a circular structure. At the border of the image the gray values are mirrored.
The gray value opening of an image i with a structuring element s is defined as
i -+ s = (i - s) + s ,i.e., an erosion of the image with s followed by a dilation with s (see gray_erosion_shape and gray_dilation_shape).

gray_opening_shape returns 2 (H_MSG_TRUE) if all parameters are correct.
gray_opening_shape is reentrant and automatically parallelized (on tuple level, channel level, domain level).
