Since the number of manifolds used to initialize ProductManifold and
their types are known at compile-time, it is possible to avoid storing
pointers to the base class as required by a homogeneous, currently
dynamically sized container. Instead, we can use std::tuple<> as a
heterogenous container with the number of elements fixed at compile-time
that allows us to store the concrete manifold realizations.
The advantage of this approach is that we can bypass the vtable when
iterating over each manifold within ProductManifold. The indirection is
invoked only once while accessing the ProductManifoldImpl members.
Additionally, potential dynamic memory allocations by a std::vector can
be completely avoided. This makes the ProductManifold implementation
more efficient both in memory and runtime.

This brings it in line with other manifolds like SphereManifold
and LineManifold, where the user has the choice to specify the size
of the manifold at compile time or runtime.
Most of the time the size is known at compile time so this will
speed up the common case.

Disable the definition of `min`/`max` macros by defining `NOMINMAX`
and prevent macro substitution in the public interface.
Also, quiet floating-point comparisons are defined as template functions
by the MSVC STL which causes compilation errors due to ambiguities in
resolving the template parameter types.

Do not define trivial constructors or destructors unless necessary
(e.g., for implementing pimpl) following the rule of zero. Define
virtual base class destructors out-of-line to avoid emitting vtables in
every translation unit.

This is the first in a series of changes that will eventually
replace the LocalParameterization interface with the richer
Manifold interface.
1. Add the Manifold interface.
2. Add implementations and test for:
a. EuclideanManifold (formerly the IdentityParameterization)
b. SubsetManifold (formerly the SubsetParameterization)
c. ProductManifold (formerly the ProductParameterization)
The testing has been completely re-done, where instead of adhoc
testing, we now define a number of matchers which explicitly
enforce the invariants demanded by the Manifold interface.
