[task #13786] Usable libraries for other languages

[Mohammad Akhlaghi]

Follow-up Comment #15, task #13786 (project gnuastro):

Thanks Kartik, that is great! I think if you focus on Julia it will have a
higher chance of acceptance: Julia and Java are very different things and not
much related. You can say that a simple conversion will take two months, but
that you will work on improving Gnuastro's internal library also during the
work, in a way that is more friendly to wrappers.

For example, one big improvement can be to define the existing programs as
library functions, so users of other languages don't need to use system calls
(which are heavy and a separate process and need inputs as files, not as
in-memory arrays). This can also be useful for C/C++ users, not just
high-level languages.

Ofcourse, this also applies to the Python libraries, or any other high-level
language ;-).
