Binary index implementation

The bitmap index is calculated for each node, so I think it will be used as a line.

By capturing this as a plane on the horizontal and vertical axes and converting it into a binary image, if it can be processed like image composition or black and white reversal, I think it will be possible to perform a large number of index calculations at high speed.

The bitmap index calculation is looped for each node, but by treating this as monochrome image data and calculating it as a surface in the same way as image calculation, the calculation performance can be improved.
