```
    Convert a BGR-formatted OpenCV opencv_core.Mat into a JavaFX Image. JavaFX understands ARGB pixel data, so one way to turn a Mat into a JavaFX image is to shift around the bytes from the Mat into an int array of pixels. This is also possible to do by using JavaCV, but the JavaCV method involves several intermediate conversions (Mat -> Frame -> BufferedImage -> JavaFX Image) and is way too slow to use for a real-time video.
    
    Parameters:
    
    mat - An 8-bit OpenCV Mat containing an image with either 1 or 3 channels
    
    Returns:
    
    A JavaFX image, or null for empty
