Currently, the logic for exporting symbols is rather complicated: when
tests are enabled internal symbols are exported in addition to the
public symbols. Such logic causes several problems. (1) Test binaries
link against a Ceres build that is different from the final release
since fewer optimizations are applied if more symbols are exported. (2)
Also, some toolchains hide symbols by default breaking the existing
logic eventually causing linker errors.
Since internal symbols are not intended to be used outside of the
project, we can compile them into object files and use exactly the same
binary code both for the final build and the tests without relying on
conditionals.
By default, all symbols are now hidden unless annotated as public.
Internal symbols are explicitly marked as not being exported in case
users chose not to hide symbols by default.

- This results in the same performance as the original solution of
increasing -inline-threshold, but this approach is more viable to
incorporate in a large code base as its effects are more targeted.

Inlining the Jet initialzation is mandatory for good performance
in autodiff, because all the constants in the dual part can be
propagated into the cost functor.
This patch unrolls the initialization loop with templates and adds
EIGEN_ALWAYS_INLINE to the constructors.

The class ArraySelector is now used in autodiff to store the
parameters and residuals. This reduces overhead of FixedArray
for fixed-sized residuals and allows more optimizations due
to inlining and unrolling.

The compile-time constant kNumResiduals is now passed to the
autodiff functions as a template parameter. This will be used
by future patches to optimize autodiff performance.

This PR changes the implementation of the current fixed array to the
abseil one, which has proper allocator support.
Some minor changes are made to make the fixed array implementation
self-contained (no dependent to abseil):
- No address sanitizer support (red zones, etc.)
- Remove of noexecpt specified for copy and move constructor.
- Remove of 'at' function as Ceres does not use exceptions.
- Use std::tuple instead of absl::CompressedTuple as it uses the abseil
utility header which includes a whole bunch of other headers.

This is to FirstOrderFunction, what AutoDiffCostFunction is to CostFunction.
This allows users of GradientSolver to be able to define objective functions
without requiring them to define the derivatives.
The implementation uses the same Jet objects for computing the gradient as
is used by AutoDiffCostFunction.

This PR changes the interface of sized_cost_fucntion,
autodiff_cost_function and numeric_diff_costfunction from using ten
hardcoded parameter blocks to a variable number of parameter blocks
using variadic templates.
Trailing parameter blocks of size zero are now considered as error.

ResidualBlock evaluation has logic to ensure that CostFunction
should always fill out the residual and jacobian arrays completely
by using a special value to pre-populate these arrays.
This works for CostFunctions with analytical Jacobians but not for
AutoDiffCostFunction and NumericDiffCostFunction Jacobians.
There is no way to fix this for NumericDiffCostFunctions without
introducing significant performance penalties but the residual
evaluation fails, which should be enough to catch such errors.
For AutoDiffCostFunction the way the Jets are default initialized
was sidestepping this check. So now, the Jet that is used to
capture the output residuals is now initialized with
kImpossibleValue, which will ensure that if the user forgets
to fill all output fields, it triggers an evaluation error.
This change required that ceres::internal::kImpossibleValue be moved
out of array_utils.h/cc to types.h.

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.

For historical reasons we had a "using namespace std;" in port.h. This
is generally a bad idea. So removing it and along the way doing a bunch
of cpplint cleanup.

The interface for NumericDiffCostFunction and AutoDiffCostFunction
are not comparable. They both accept variadic functors.
The change is backward compatible, as it still supports numeric
differentiation of CostFunction objects.
Some refactoring of documentation and code in auto_diff_cost_function
and its relatives was also done to make things consistent.

CostFunctionToFunctor wraps a CostFunction, and makes it available
as a templated functor that can be called from other templated
functors. This is useful for when one wants to mix automatic,
numeric and analytic differentiated functions.
Also a bug fix in autodiff.h

Supporting only 6 parameters in autodiff was enough for most
cases, but 6 was not always sufficient. This extends the
current implementation to work with up to 10 parameters.
This also increases the number of parameters supported in
SizedCostFunction to 10.

This commit modifies the only function in autodiff that takes a
templated number of outputs (i.e. residuals) and makes that
template parameter a normal parameter. With that change, it
is a trivial matter to support a dynamic number of residuals.
The API for dynamic residuals is to pass a fake number of
residuals as the second template argument to
AutoDiffCostFunction, and to pass the real number of
parameters as a second constructor argument.
