1. Add abseil-cpp as a submodule. We are tracking the latest LTS
release, which is lts_2024_01_16.
2. Replace glog/gflags with absl::log and absl::flags.
3. Remove miniglog
4. Also take a whack at making the bazel build work with
abseil-cpp and gtest.
There are a number of TODOs in this CL that still need to be resolved.

1. Add a version history
2. Update copyright years across the code base
3. Run format_all.sh
4. Update version strings from 2.1.0 to 2.2.0 in the docs and
elsewhere.

- Change formatting standard to Cpp11. Main difference is not having
the space between two closing >> for nested templates. We don't
choose c++14, because older versions of clang-format (version 9
and earlier) don't know this value yet, and it doesn't make a
difference in the formatting.
- Apply clang-format to all (non generated) internal source files.
- Manually fix some code sections (clang-format on/off) and c-strings
- Exclude some embedded external files with very different formatting
(gtest/gmock)
- Add script to format all source files

Since Ceres is moving to using GitHub for issues, and the Google
Code URL in the current copyright header will soon become invalid,
update all the headers.

The standard sparse normal Cholesky solver assumes a fixed
sparsity pattern which is useful for a large number of problems
presented to Ceres. However, some problems are symbolically dense
but numerically sparse i.e. each residual is a function of a
large number of parameters but at any given state the residual
only depends on a sparse subset of them. For these class of
problems it is faster to re-analyse the sparsity pattern of the
jacobian at each iteration of the non-linear optimisation instead
of including all of the zero entries in the step computation.
The proposed solution adds the dynamic_sparsity option which can
be used with SPARSE_NORMAL_CHOLESKY. A
DynamicCompressedRowSparseMatrix type (which extends
CompressedRowSparseMatrix) has been introduced which allows
dynamic addition and removal of elements. A Finalize method is
provided which then consolidates the matrix so that it can be
used in place of a regular CompressedRowSparseMatrix. An
associated jacobian writer has also been provided.
Changes that were required to make this extension were adding the
SetMaxNumNonZeros method to CompressedRowSparseMatrix and adding
a JacobianFinalizer template parameter to the ProgramEvaluator.
