/**
* Finder for extremum approach events.
* <p>
* This class finds extremum approach events (i.e. closest or farthest approach).
* </p>
* <p>
* The default implementation behavior is to {@link Action#CONTINUE continue} propagation at farthest approach and to
* {@link Action#STOP stop} propagation at closest approach. This can be changed by calling
* {@link #withHandler(EventHandler)} after construction (go to the end of the documentation to see an example).
* </p>
* <p>
* As this detector needs two objects (moving relative to each other), it embeds one
* {@link PVCoordinatesProvider coordinates provider} for the secondary object and is registered as an event detector in
* the propagator of the primary object. The secondary object {@link PVCoordinatesProvider coordinates provider} will
* therefore be driven by this detector (and hence by the propagator in which this detector is registered).
* </p>
* <p><b>
* In order to avoid infinite recursion, care must be taken to have the secondary object provider being <em>completely
* independent</em> from anything else. In particular, if the provider is a propagator, it should <em>not</em> be run
* together in a {@link PropagatorsParallelizer propagators parallelizer} with the propagator this detector is
* registered in. It is fine however to configure two separate propagators PsA and PsB with similar settings for the
* secondary object and one propagator Pm for the primary object and then use Psa in this detector registered within Pm
* while Pm and Psb are run in the context of a {@link PropagatorsParallelizer propagators parallelizer}.
* </b></p>
* <p>
* For efficiency reason during the event search loop, it is recommended to have the secondary provider be an analytical
* propagator or an ephemeris. A numerical propagator as a secondary propagator works but is expected to be
* computationally costly.
* </p>
* <p>
* Also, it is possible to detect solely one type of event using an {@link EventSlopeFilter event slope filter}. For
* example in order to only detect closest approach, one should type the following :
* </p>
* <pre>{@code
* ExtremumApproachDetector extremumApproachDetector = new ExtremumApproachDetector(secondaryPVProvider);
* EventDetector closeApproachDetector = new EventSlopeFilter<ExtremumApproachDetector>(extremumApproachDetector,FilterType.TRIGGER_ONLY_INCREASING_EVENTS);
* }
* </pre>
