 * Base class that all filters should inherit from. Filters need to be applied to objects that have been cached using
 * the {{#crossLink "DisplayObject/cache"}}{{/crossLink}} method. If an object changes, please cache it again, or use
 * {{#crossLink "DisplayObject/updateCache"}}{{/crossLink}}.
 *
 * <h4>Example</h4>
 *      myInstance.cache(0,0, 100, 100);
 *      myInstance.filters = [
 *          new createjs.ColorFilter(0, 0, 0, 1, 255, 0, 0),

 * <h4>EaselJS Filters</h4>
 * EaselJS comes with a number of pre-built filters. Note that individual filters are not compiled into the minified
 * version of EaselJS. To use them, you must include them manually in the HTML.
 * <ul><li>{{#crossLink "AlphaMapFilter"}}{{/crossLink}} : Map a greyscale image to the alpha channel of a display object</li>
 *      <li>{{#crossLink "AlphaMaskFilter"}}{{/crossLink}}: Map an image's alpha channel to the alpha channel of a display object</li>
 *      <li>{{#crossLink "BoxBlurFilter"}}{{/crossLink}}: Apply vertical and horizontal blur to a display object</li>
 *      <li>{{#crossLink "ColorFilter"}}{{/crossLink}}: Color transform a display object</li>
 *      <li>{{#crossLink "ColorMatrixFilter"}}{{/crossLink}}: Transform an image using a {{#crossLink "ColorMatrix"}}{{/crossLink}}</li>
