// 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.
