 * \brief Compute forward or reverse FFT. complex vector in / complex vector out.
 * \ingroup fourier_analysis_blk
 *
 * The FFT operation is defined for a vector \f$x\f$ with \f$N\f$ uniformly
 * sampled points by
 *
 * \f[ X(a) = \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} x(a) \cdot e^{-j 2\pi k a / N} \f]
 *
 * \f$ X = FFT\{x\} \f$ is the the FFT transform of \f$x(a)\f$, \f$j\f$ is
 * the imaginary unit, \f$k\f$ and \f$a\f$ range from \f$0\f$ to \f$N-1\f$.
 *
 * The IFFT operation is defined for a vector \f$y\f$ with \f$N\f$
 * uniformly sampled points by
 *
 * \f[ Y(b) = \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} y(b) \cdot e^{j 2\pi k b / N} \f]
 *
 * \f$Y = IFFT\{y\}\f$ is the the inverse FFT transform of \f$y(b)\f$,
 * \f$j\f$ is the imaginary unit, \f$k\f$ and \f$b\f$ range from \f$0\f$ to
 * \f$N-1\f$.
 *
 * \b Note, that due to the underlying FFTW library, the output of a FFT
 * followed by an IFFT (or the other way around) will be scaled i.e.
 * \f$FFT\{ \, IFFT\{x\} \,\} =  N \cdot x \neq x\f$.
