//! Generic backtracking line search.
/*!  This line search starts with the step length defined by "Default
  Step". It checks to see if the norm of the right hand side (RHS) has
  been reduced. If so, it exits successfully. Otherwise, it reduces
  the step length by the reduction factor (defaults to one-half). It
  continues to repeat this procedure until it either finds a reduction
  in the norm of the RHS or the step is less than that specified by
  "Minimum Step". In the later case, the line search has failed, and
  we take the step defined by "Recovery Step".

  This line search can be called via NOX::LineSearch::Manager.

  The following parameters can be specified for this line search in
  the "Backtrack" sublist of the "Line Search" sublist.

<ul>
<li> "Default Step" - starting step length (defaults to 1.0)
<li> "Minimum Step" - minimum acceptable step length (defaults to 1.0e-12)
<li> "Recovery Step" - step to take when the line search fails
     (defaults to value for "Default Step")
<li> "Max Iters" - maximum number of iterations (i.e., RHS computations)
<li> "Reduction Factor" - A multiplier between zero and one that reduces the step size between line search iterations
</ul>
