* pixGenTextblockMask()
*
* Input: pixs (1 bpp, textline mask, assumed to be 150 to 200 ppi)
* pixvws (vertical white space mask)
* debug (flag: 1 for debug output)
* Return: pixd (textblock mask), or null on error
*
* Notes:
* (1) Both the input masks (textline and vertical white space) and
* the returned textblock mask are at the same resolution.
* (2) The result is somewhat noisy, in that small "blocks" of
* text may be included. These can be removed by post-processing,
* using, e.g.,
* pixSelectBySize(pix, 60, 60, 4, L_SELECT_IF_EITHER,
* L_SELECT_IF_GTE, NULL);
