       Returns a valid non-zero sampler object and errcode_ret is set to CL_SUCCESS if the sampler object is
       created successfully. Otherwise, it returns a NULL value with one of the following error values returned
       in errcode_ret:

       •   CL_INVALID_CONTEXT if context is not a valid context.

       •   CL_INVALID_VALUE if addressing_mode, filter_mode, or normalized_coords or a combination of these
           argument values are not valid.

       •   CL_INVALID_OPERATION if images are not supported by any device associated with context (i.e.
           CL_DEVICE_IMAGE_SUPPORT specified in the table of OpenCL Device Queries for clGetDeviceInfo(3clc) is
           CL_FALSE).

       •   CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation
           on the device.

       •   CL_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL
           implementation on the host.

context
           Must be a valid OpenCL context.

        normalized_coords
           Determines if the image coordinates specified are normalized (if normalized_coords is CL_TRUE) or not
           (if normalized_coords is CL_FALSE).

        addressing_mode
           Specifies how out-of-range image coordinates are handled when reading from an image. This can be set
           to CL_ADDRESS_MIRRORED_REPEAT, CL_ADDRESS_REPEAT, CL_ADDRESS_CLAMP_TO_EDGE, CL_ADDRESS_CLAMP, and
           CL_ADDRESS_NONE.

        filter_mode
           Specifies the type of filter that must be applied when reading an image. This can be
           CL_FILTER_NEAREST or CL_FILTER_LINEAR.

        errcode_ret
           Returns an appropriate error code. If errcode_ret is NULL, no error code is returned.
