+// A linear operator which takes a matrix A and a diagonal vector D and
+// performs products of the form
+//
+//   (A^T A + D^T D)x
+//
+// This is used to implement iterative general sparse linear solving with
+// conjugate gradients, where A is the Jacobian and D is a regularizing
+// parameter. A brief proof that D^T D is the correct regularizer:
+//
+// Given a regularized least squares problem:
+//
+//   min  ||Ax - b||^2 + ||Dx||^2
+//    x
+//
+// First expand into matrix notation:
+//
+//   (Ax - b)^T (Ax - b) + xD^TDx
+//
+// Then multiply out to get:
+//
+//   = xA^TAx - 2xA^T b + b^Tb + xD^TDx
+//   = xA^TAx - 2b^T Ax + b^Tb + xD^TDx
+//
+// Take the derivative:
+//
+//   0 = 2A^TAx - 2b^T A + b^Tb + 2 D^TDx
+//   0 = A^TAx - A^T b + D^TDx
+//   0 = (A^TA + D^TD)x - A^T b
+//
+// Thus, the symmetric system we need to solve for CGNR is
+//
+//   Sx = z
+//
+// with S = A^TA + D^TD
+//  and z = A^T b
+//
+// Note: This class is not thread safe, since it uses some temporary storage.
