 * \brief Test for raster mask presence and get file descriptor if present.

 * This function tests the mask presence and takes into account the state of
 * auto-masking in the library, so mask is considered as not present when
 * masking is suppressed regardless of the presence of the mask raster.
 *
 * \return -1 if mask is not present
 * \return file descriptor if raster mask is present and active
