/**
* Filters features according their properties.
* A <cite>filter expression</cite> is a construct used to constraint a feature set to a subset.
*
* <p>All filter and expression implementations provided by Apache SIS are thread-safe.
* They are not necessarily stateless however; for example a filter may remember which
* warnings have been reported in order to avoid to report the same warning twice.</p>
