greedycoloring

Syntax: greedycoloring(image, connectivity)

Perform greedy coloring of regions. Colors each region in image such that its neighbours are colored with different colors, and uses as little colors as possible. Uses greedy algorithm so the count of colors used might not be minimal. Assumes background to have value 0 and colors all non-zero regions.
