This adds support for removing parameter and residual blocks.
There are two modes of operation: in the first, removals of
paremeter blocks are expensive, since each remove requires
scanning all residual blocks to find ones that depend on the
removed parameter. In the other, extra memory is sacrificed to
maintain a list of the residuals a parameter block depends on,
removing the need to scan. In both cases, removing residual blocks
is fast.
As a caveat, any removals destroys the ordering of the parameters,
so the residuals or jacobian returned from Solver::Solve() is
meaningless. There is some debate on the best way to handle this;
the details remain for a future change.
This also adds some overhead, even in the case that fast removals
are not requested:
- 1 int32 to each residual, to track its position in the program.
- 1 pointer to each parameter, to store the dependent residuals.

Following the last commit, which extends the number of parameters blocks autodiff can accept, the interface of Problem::AddResidualBlock is extended to accept up to 10 parameter blocks.
