// This class allows you to apply different conditioning to the residual
// values of a wrapped cost function. An example where this is useful is
// where you have an existing cost function that produces N values, but you
// want the total cost to be something other than just the sum of these
// squared values - maybe you want to apply a different scaling to some
// values, to change their contribution to the cost.
//
// Usage:
//
// // my_cost_function produces N residuals
// CostFunction* my_cost_function = ...
// CHECK_EQ(N, my_cost_function->num_residuals());
// vector<CostFunction*> conditioners;
//
// // Make N 1x1 cost functions (1 parameter, 1 residual)
// CostFunction* f_1 = ...
// conditioners.push_back(f_1);
// ...
// CostFunction* f_N = ...
// conditioners.push_back(f_N);
// ConditionedCostFunction* ccf =
// new ConditionedCostFunction(my_cost_function, conditioners);
//
// Now ccf's residual i (i=0..N-1) will be passed though the i'th conditioner.
//
// ccf_residual[i] = f_i(my_cost_function_residual[i])
//
// and the Jacobian will be affected appropriately.
