bilinear filler -- useful for interpolation with DeconvolutionLayer

This filler is a convenience for interpolating with DeconvolutionLayer
or smoothing + downsampling with ConvolutionLayer for stride > 1.

+@brief Fills a Blob with coefficients for bilinear interpolation.
+
+A common use case is with the DeconvolutionLayer acting as upsampling.
+You can upsample a feature map with shape of (B, C, H, W) by any integer factor
+using the following proto.
+\code
+layer {
+  name: "upsample", type: "Deconvolution"
+  bottom: "{{bottom_name}}" top: "{{top_name}}"
+  convolution_param {
+    kernel_size: {{2 * factor - factor % 2}} stride: {{factor}}
+    num_output: {{C}} group: {{C}}
+    pad: {{ceil((factor - 1) / 2.)}}
+    weight_filler: { type: "bilinear" } bias_term: false
+  }
+  param { lr_mult: 0 decay_mult: 0 }
+}
+\endcode
+Please use this by replacing `{{}}` with your values. By specifying
+`num_output: {{C}} group: {{C}}`, it behaves as
+channel-wise convolution. The filter shape of this deconvolution layer will be
+(C, 1, K, K) where K is `kernel_size`, and this filler will set a (K, K)
+interpolation kernel for every channel of the filter identically. The resulting
+shape of the top feature map will be (B, C, factor * H, factor * W).
+Note that the learning rate and the
+weight decay are set to 0 in order to keep coefficient values of bilinear
+interpolation unchanged during training. If you apply this to an image, this
+operation is equivalent to the following call in Python with Scikit.Image.
+\code{.py}
+out = skimage.transform.rescale(img, factor, mode='constant', cval=0)
+\endcode
