Description

Summary of the bug:
The documentation of the blend filter doesn't explain any of the modes. A few modes are self-explaining, but most are not. Better explanations are required. Here are a few:

addition: Output is (A+B), with an upper limit at white level

average: Output is the arithmetic mean of A and B

subtract: Output is (A-B), with a lower limit at black level

difference: Output is the absolute difference of A and B

grainextract: Output is (A-B), shifted to 50% gray level with a lower limit at black level and an upper limit at white level.

darken: Output is the minimum of A and B

lighten: Output is the maximum of A and B

For all other modes I don't know how to describe them.
