1. A new dogleg trust region strategy.
2. Consistent naming of all variables taking and reporting
time. Also all are doubles now.
3. Enum to stringification routines.
4. bundle_adjuster.cc accepts max solver time and trust_region_strategy.
5. Time accounting is pushed into solver_impl.cc and there is now
postprocessing time accounted for explicitly.
6. IterationCallback now has cumulative time.
7. LoggingCallback logs per iteration and cumulative time.
8. TrustRegionStrategy now allows for Invalid steps to be indicated
explicitly.
9. Trust region minimizer actually terminates on max_solver_time.

1. New TrustRegionMinimizer and basic tests for it.
2. New TrustRegionStrategy interface.
3. New LevenbergMarquardtStrategy and tests for it.
4. Updates to SolverImpl to reflect this.
5. Changes to Solver::Options and IterationSummary related to this.
6. Deleted levenberg_marquardt.cc/h/_test.cc

1. Added support for CXSparse - SparseNormalCholesky and
SchurComplementSolver support SuiteSparse and CXSparse now.
I am not sure I will add suport for visibility based
preconditioning using CXSparse. Its not a high priority.
2. New enum SparseLinearAlgebraLibraryType which allows the user
to indicate which sparse linear algebra library should be used.
3. Updated tests for SolverImpl and system_test.
4. Build system changes to automatically detect CXSparse and
link to it by default -- just like SuiteSparse.
5. Minor bug fixes dealing in the cmake files and VBP.
6. Changed the order of the system test.
7. Deduped the unsymmetric linear solver test.

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.
1. Make the mechanism for writing problems to disk, generic and
controllable using an enum DumpType visible in the API.
2. Instead of single file containing protocol buffers, now matrices can
be written in a matlab/octave friendly format. This is now the default.
3. The support for writing problems to disk is moved into
linear_least_squares_problem.cc/h
4. SparseMatrix now has a ToTextFile virtual method which is
implemented by each of its subclasses to write a (i,j,s) triplets.
5. Minor changes to simple_bundle_adjuster to enable logging at startup.
- Rename BlockDiagonalPreconditioner to BlockJacobiPreconditioner
- Include the diagonal in the block jacobi preconditioner.
- Better flag help for eta.
- Enable test for CGNR
- Rename CONJUGATE_GRADIENTS to CGNR.
- etc.
