Be smarter about when to compute what.  This speeds up assembly of the Hessian for harmonic maps from R^3 to S^2 by a factor of 3

Remove class specializations.  The old implementation for the UnitVector class will handle all cases

Remove a few specializations.  From now on we will assume that all target spaces can be parametrized by some sort of global embedding.  I don't see a case coming where that is not general enough

Solve the minimization problems for the evaluation of gfe functions really down to machine precision.  This appears to make the overall algorithm much more stable

instead of a singular value decomposition.  This makes computing
a Hesse matrix roughly 20% faster.

using a finite-difference approximation only for the derivative
of the gfe gradients wrt coefficients.

Also: fix more bugs in the implementation of the derivative of gfe
function gradients wrt the coefficients.  This appears to work now,
but inexact evaluations remain an issue.
