/** Rotations are currently represented using quaternions and a cached
    copy of the rotation matrix. The quaternion allows for fast and
    stable composition and the cached rotation matrix means that
    rotations are performed quickly. See
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternions_and_spatial_rotation for
    a comparison of different implementations of rotations.

    Currently the rotation can be initialized from either:
    - XYZ Euler angles
    - Rotation Matrix
    - Quaternion
    - angle/axis representation

    of which of the x,y,z axis to use in what order and whether the rotation
    axis is in the body frame (and hence affected by previous rotations) or in
    in a fixed frame. See
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_between_quaternions_and_Euler_angles
    for a general description.

    - All Euler angles are specified in radians.
    - Only x-y-z order is currently supported.
    - To convert Euler angles in a different order, one can compose a Rotation3D
    from three rotations using get_rotation_about_axis function.
