// Subset preconditioning, uses a subset of the rows of the Jacobian
// to construct a preconditioner for the normal equations.
//
// To keep the interface simple, we assume that the matrix A has
// already been re-ordered that the user wishes to some subset of the
// bottom row blocks of the matrix as the preconditioner. This is
// controlled by
// Preconditioner::Options::subset_preconditioner_start_row_block.
//
// When using the subset preconditioner, all row blocks starting
// from this row block are used to construct the preconditioner.
//
// More precisely the matrix A is horizontally partitioned as
//
// A = [P]
//     [Q]
//
// where P has subset_preconditioner_start_row_block row blocks,
// and the preconditioner is the inverse of the matrix Q'Q.
//
// Obviously, the smaller this number, the more accurate and
// computationally expensive this preconditioner will be.
//
// See the tests for example usage.
