Blend a material with another.

“Blending” in this context refers to constructing a material from a combination of itself and another, compatible material. To be compatible, the following conditions must hold as of now:

- Both materials must be of the same type and parameterization.
- The types of each parameter within each material must match. For
  instance, if a parameter `RHO` in one material is a
  `ConstantParameter`, `RHO` in the other must also be a
  `ConstantParameter.
- The material itself must be realized.
- No analytic parameters are present in either material.

If any of these conditions are violated, this function will return an error.

Each parameter within the blended material will be blended according to its blend_method. The details of each method are expanded upon in the args documentation below.

    ...

Validator used to ensure discrete parameters are suitable for blending.

Meant to be used as a decorator.
