/**@brief   LP simplifier for removing uneccessary row/columns.
   @ingroup Algo

   This #SPxSimplifier is mainly based on the paper "Presolving in
   linear programming" by E. Andersen and K. Andersen (Mathematical
   Programming, 1995).  It implements all proposed methods and some
   other preprocessing techniques for removing redundant rows and
   columns and bounds.  Also infeasibility and unboundedness may be
   detected.

   Removed are:
   - empty rows / columns
   - unconstraint rows
   - row singletons
   - forcing rows
   - zero objective column singletons
   - (implied) free column singletons
   - doubleton equations combined with a column singleton
   - (implicitly) fixed columns
   - redundant lhs / rhs
   - redundant variable bounds
   - variables that are free in one direction
   - (weakly) dominated columns
   - duplicate rows / columns
