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.

1. When a LAPACK implementation is present, then
DENSE_QR, DENSE_NORMAL_CHOLESKY and DENSE_SCHUR
can use it for doing dense linear algebra operations.
2. The user can switch dense linear algebra libraries
by setting Solver::Options::dense_linear_algebra_library_type.
3. Solver::Options::sparse_linear_algebra_library is now
Solver::Options::sparse_linear_algebra_library_type to be consistent
with all the other enums in Solver::Options.
4. Updated documentation as well as Solver::Summary::FullReport
to reflect these changes.

1. Add the ability to evaluate the problem without loss function.
2. Remove static Evaluator::Evaluate
3. Refactor the common code from problem_test.cc and
evaluator_test.cc into evaluator_test_utils.cc

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.

1. CostFunction returning false is handled better.
If only the cost is being evaluated, it is possible to
use the false value as an infinite value signal/outside
a region of validity. This allows a weak form of constraint
handling. Useful for example in handling infinities.
2. Changed the way how the slop around zero when model_cost
is larger than the current cost. Relative instead of absolute
tolerances are used. The same logic is propagated how the
corresponding clamping of the model_cost is done.
3. Fixed a minor indexing bug in nist.cc.
4. Some minor logging fixes to nist.cc to make it more
compatible with the rest of ceres.
Together these changes, take the successful solve count from
41/54 to 46/54 and eliminate all NUMERICAL_FAILURE problems.
