Some methods in Problem do not modify the parameter block
and those methods now allow the user to call them with const double*.
The methods are
RemoveParameterBlock
SetParameterBlockConstant
IsParameterBlockConstant
GetParameterization
GetParameterLowerBound
GetParameterUpperBound

The implicitly-declared copy constructor and copy assignment operator
of ProductParameterization are not deleted since the corresponding
functions of the member vector are defined, though ill-formed if they
are instantiated.
With dllexport, the compiler must generate all of the member functions
of the class, including those are implicitly-declared, so we need
explicitly delete the ill-formed ones.

This change only affects the TRUST_REGION minimizer and has no effect
on the LINE_SEARCH minimizer.
This options controls the number of iterations that the line search
algorithm performs. The line search algorithm is as the name implies,
used in the LINE_SEARCH minimizer. It is also used by the TRUST_REGION
minimizer when solving bounds constrained optimization problems.
In some bounds constrained problems, it is enough to project each step
onto the bounds constraints and not perform the line search. This can
have a significant impact on runtime. Setting
Solver::Options::max_num_line_search_step_size_iterations = 0 enables
this functionality.
Changchang Wu (ccwu@google.com) came up with the idea for this
implementation.

This commit includes the following:
- Changes to CMake to make it safer to see which compiler flags are supported,
so this way we do not need to worry about version checks in CMake.
- Unix platforms (which includes both Linux and Apple as far as i can tell)
will now enable -Wmissing-declarations warning for the whole Ceres.
- Changes in all sources to solve missing declaration warning. In most cases
it was either matter of using static qualifier or moving functions to an
anonymous namespace.
In one case the function got removed, since it seems to be unused.
Additionally, in slam examples there was a non-inlined function implementation
in a header, which is a direct way to cause linking errors if other .cc file
will include that helper header.
- All third party sources (which is currently only gmock) has this extra
paranoid warning disabled.
This warning is important in the following cases:
- Detect helper functions which are not needed anymore.
- Avoid unnoticed pollution of namespace.
- Avoid bad level calls.
- Avoid missing updates in header files after changes in implementation file.
- Helps integrating Ceres into software where paranoid warnings are important.

This CL modernizes ProductParameterization in the following ways:
- It uses std::unique_ptr for memory handling instead of using raw
pointers and handmade memory management.
- Replaces the constructors with a variadic template.

Some rotation functions like UnitQuaternionRotatePoint,
QuaternionRotatePoint, etc. will calculate bad results if the input
point and output point points to the same memory (inplace operation).
This CL adds checks in debug mode to guard against it.

For proper alignment on the heap Eigen needs to have a custom
allocator. There are two forms, new and in-place new. To make sure
that memory is aligned using new, one needs to overload new by
adding EIGEN_MAKE_ALIGNED_OPERATOR_NEW to any struct which contains a
fixed size Eigen type either through inheritance or as a direct or
indirect member. For the in-place new one need to use the
Eigen::aligned_allocator (e.g. for std::vector, std::list,
FixedArray, etc.). For more details see:
https://eigen.tuxfamily.org/dox/group__DenseMatrixManipulation__Alignement.html
This CL adds EIGEN_MAKE_ALIGNED_OPERATOR_NEW to all structs, which
contain fixed-size Eigen types and uses the Eigen::aligned_allocator
for containers which stores structs of fixed-size Eigen types.

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.

The class parameter dims is a helper class that holds the parameter
dimensions. The parameter dimensions are either dynamic or the
sizes are known at compile time. It is used to pass parameter block
dimensions around (e.g. between functions or classes).
Also the dimensions of the parameter blocks are checked at compile
time and must be greater than zero. This means trailing zero parameter
blocks will result in a compile error.

When Solver::Options::check_gradients is true, Ceres internally
creates a new ProblemImpl object which wraps each CostFunction
in the user's problem with a GradientCheckingCostFunction.
Doing this also requires creating new ParameterBlock objects,
and when support for upper and lower bounds was added to Ceres,
CreateGradientCheckingProblemImpl should also have been updated
to create a problem with the same parameter bounds. As a result,
if check_gradients is enabled for a bounded problem, it constructs
an unconstrained problem and solves it.
This CL fixes this, by introducing Problem::GetParameterLowerBound,
and Problem::GetParameterUpperBound and using them to create a bounded
problem when checking gradients.
Thanks to @pbeeson for not only reporting this problem, but also
providing a small standalone reproduction which made debugging this
possible.

1. Add Solver::Options::use_mixed_precision_solves,
and Solver::Options::max_num_refinement_iterations.
2. Make SparseCholesky::Create return a unique_ptr.

as an argument.
4. IterativeRefiner's constructor does not require num_cols
as an argument.
5. SparseNormalCholeskySolver now uses a separate rhs vector.
This basic implementation results in a 10% reduction in solver time
and 30% reduction in linear solver memory usage.
