/**
 * \class Gyoto::Astrobj::Star
 * \brief Mass-less, spherical object following a timelike geodesic
 *
 * Gyoto can compute the Star's orbit in a Gyoto::Metric and perform
 * ray-tracing on this target. The XML description of a Star looks
 * like:
 * \code
 * <Astrobj kind = "Star">
 *   <Metric kind = "KerrBL">
 *     <Spin> 0. </Spin>
 *   </Metric>
 *   <Radius> 2. </Radius>
 *   <Velocity> 0. 0. 0.037037 </Velocity>
 *   <Position> 600. 9. 1.5707999999999999741 0 </Position>
 *   <Spectrum kind="BlackBody">
 *     <Temperature> 6000 </Temperature>
 *   </Spectrum>
 *   <Opacity kind="PowerLaw">
 *     <Exponent> 0 </Exponent>
 *     <Constant> 0.1 </Constant>
 *   </Opacity>
 *   <OpticallyThin/>
 * </Astrobj>
 * \endcode
 *
 * Star supports exactly the union of the parameters supported by
 * Gyoto::Astrobj::UniformSphere and Gyoto::Worldline.
 * 
 * The Metric element can be of any kind. This Metric sets the
 * coordinate system.
 *
 * The Star is a coordinate sphere of radius Radius in solid motion.
 *
 * Position sets the initial 4-coordinate of the centre of the
 * sphere. Velocity contains its initial 3-velocity (the time
 * derivatives of the 3 space coordinates).
 *
 * Like many Astrobj::Generic impementations, a Star can be
 * OpticallyThin or OpticallyThick.
 *
 * Spectrum and Opacity (if OpticallyThin) are the descriptions of two
 * Gyoto::Spectrum::Generic sub-classes.
 *
