Grid mode
=========

Display layers in a grid using the `viewer.grid` API. When grid is enabled,
layers are automatically arranged - based on the stride, height, and width parameters -
in a grid of viewboxes linked to the main Camera and Dims. Viewer overlays such as
scale_bar can also be shown in a gridded manner.
