Description

Currently the user has to compute the axes and the pyramid sizes before actually computing the pyramids.
I would like to have something like:

arr = DimArray(rand(X(10000), Y(10000))
pyramids = getpyramids(arr)

This should give a list of pyramids or even a struct which holds the relevant information of the pyramid so that it can be used for plotting
There should be a way to insert the keyword arguments for the fill_pyramids call into the getpyramids function call.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing fill_pyramids entry point and how it currently receives axis and pyramid-size information. Trace how DimArray datacubes and plotting consume the resulting pyramids, then define the getpyramids interface and its keyword forwarding. Done means a datacube can produce reusable pyramid information or results without manually computing axes and sizes.
