  """Creates a 2D mask array for a square patch of a given size and location.

  The mask is created with its center at the y and x coordinates, which must be
  within the image. While the mask center must be within the image, the mask
  itself can be partially outside of it. If patch_size is an even number, then
  the mask is created with lower-valued coordinates first (top and left).

  Args:
    y: An integer or scalar int32 tensor. The vertical coordinate of the
      patch mask center. Must be within the range [0, image_height).
    x: An integer or scalar int32 tensor. The horizontal coordinate of the
      patch mask center. Must be within the range [0, image_width).
    patch_size: An integer or scalar int32 tensor. The square size of the
      patch mask. Must be at least 1.
    image_shape: A list or 1D int32 tensor representing the shape of the image
      to which the mask will correspond, with the first two values being image
      height and width. For example, [image_height, image_width] or
      [image_height, image_width, image_channels].

  Returns:
    Boolean mask tensor of shape [image_height, image_width] with True values
    for the patch.

  Raises:
    tf.errors.InvalidArgumentError: if x is not in the range [0, image_width), y
      is not in the range [0, image_height), or patch_size is not at least 1.
