Support for "mosaic" puzzle type
This is a very simple puzzle type.
It is almost the same as Minesweeper, but usually presented as a grid shading puzzle.
The difference from Minesweeper is that the cells containing the numeric givens may also be shaded (and all shaded cells in the 3x3 block centered on a given are included in its count.)
Often used to derive pixelated image. The local constraint makes the puzzle less interesting than a nonogram but also makes it better suited to larger images with longer solves.
