Sameer Agarwal 29c21f5680 Add SparseCholesky
SparseCholesky is an interface to sparse cholesky factorization
routines across sparse linear algebra libraries. Each sparse
linear algebra library is responsible for implementing its own
instance of this interface.

As a result the various places - SparseNormalCholeskySolver,
SparseSchurComplementSolver and VisibilityBasedPreconditioner
are significantly simplified.
