/// \class RTree
/// Implementation of RTree, a multidimensional bounding rectangle tree.
/// Example usage: For a 3-dimensional tree use RTree<Object*, float, 3> myTree;
///
/// This modified, templated C++ version by Greg Douglas at Auran (http://www.auran.com)
///
/// DATATYPE Referenced data, should be int, void*, obj* etc. no larger than sizeof<void*> and simple type
/// ELEMTYPE Type of element such as int or float
/// NUMDIMS Number of dimensions such as 2 or 3
/// ELEMTYPEREAL Type of element that allows fractional and large values such as float or double, for use in volume calcs
///
/// NOTES: Inserting and removing data requires the knowledge of its constant Minimal Bounding Rectangle.
///        This version uses new/delete for nodes, I recommend using a fixed size allocator for efficiency.
///        Instead of using a callback function for returned results, I recommend and efficient pre-sized, grow-only memory
///        array similar to MFC CArray or STL Vector for returning search query result.
