Field Arithmetic
Apply a point-wise arithmetic operation to two DATA_FIELDs of the same resolution. Equivalent to gwy_data_field_sum_fields / subtract_fields / multiply_fields / divide_fields / min_of_fields / max_of_fields / hypot_of_fields.

- divide may produce NaN or Inf pixels where field_b is zero.
