Subject: [boost] [GIL] Small docs update suggestion on cached_location_t

Hi,
I've stumbled upon old thread on "locator and cached_location_t" [1]
There are some interesting explanations which I believe is worth to
add to Boost.GIL docs.
Particularly, I believe the following Lubomir's clarification should be added
as first paragraph documenting cached location:
"Cached location is meant to be used as a quick way to get to neighborhood
pixels if you need to read or write a neighboring location frequently
relative to a given locator."
Currently, notion of cached location is documented in the GIL design guide [1]
but it makes users to deduce answer to "What the cached locator is for?".
BTW, I wanted to provide patch, but I'm not sure where this update should be put
or if I should submit a ticket.
