Description

SlidingWindowSplitter currently supports already loaded images into tensors or read whole slide images using WSIReader. Using current API (with backward compatiblity), we should be able to add support for any image reader that is subclass of ImageReader.

Research direction

Start by reading the SlidingWindowSplitter and ImageReader APIs, then inspect how WSIReader support is handled and locate related tests. Verify the backward-compatible API expectations and add coverage showing that ImageReader subclasses work with SlidingWindowSplitter without breaking existing tensor or WSIReader usage.
