For now, just a void* marker_data will do the trick. I plan on reorganizing
the libmv 2D tracker code this weekend, so this will change anyway.

At a high level, what libmv will need for each frame is a "preprocessed"
version (which libmv can compute) that has e.g. the image filtered with edge
detectors and whatnot. Each bundle (not just marker) typically has a image
patch ("pattern") associated with it that is from the first frame of that
track.
