Start of work to add the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm. For now, it is a class that estimates an (inverse) Hessian from iterates and the corresponding gradients at these iterates. An optimizer can be built around it.

It implements the BFGS update rule (eqn 6.17 p. 140) to estimate the inverse Hessian and the DFP update rule (eqn 6.13 p.139) from Nocedal and Wright, Numerical Optimization, 2nd edition, which have a similar structure.

Good work in progress @fabinsch.
I made some minor comments related to the coding style ;)

- proof of concept to show that bfgs is working within the proxnlp solver to estimate hessians
- solve the ur5-ik task with BFGS (86iters) and compare against exact hessian (19iters) and identity hessian (345iters)

For now, the BFGSStrategy works on Euclidian space. As a first step, I checked it therefore on the ur5-ik example and compared it against an identity hessian.

As a next step, BFGSStrategy should be extended to work on Riemannian manifolds. Then, other examples like camera-pose-optimization could be solved.

Let's schedule some time after Nov. 15th to work on this again @fabinsch.
