After much back and forth: this is the correct way.  This size cannot
be taken from the transfer operators, because these operators exist
only if there is more than one level.

That works for fe spaces of all orders.

Christian Engwer told me a trick how to get the mpiHelper instance without
known argc and argv.

We have the correct value in the variable 'oldEnergy' anyway.

Because the gradient is needed anyway when computing the Hesse matrix.
Not computing it separately a second time shaves off about 8% wall time
of each iteration.

And set the inner loop solver verbosity to QUIET

This number is nowadays infered from the number of transfer operators.

Since ADOL-C is not multi-threaded we will not be using OpenMP
in the foreseeable future.  And on a single-threaded code the
OpenMP timer and the Dune timer return the same values anyway.

These were only there to hack our way around a bug in the
interface of the Rotation class.  This bug has been fixed
quite a while ago.

The Dune timers do not return wall time when using thread parallelism.

Another easy patch which makes the code a lot faster.

Also, this patch removes the quasi-Newton code.  So far that code
hasn't helped at all.  Quasi-Newton methods will need more work
in the future.

notably the almost-equivalent UnitVector<4>: A vector with three entries
is interpreted by the UnitVector<4> class as a tangent vector given in
the basis returned by orthonormalFrame.  That is correct as it works
for all kinds of manifolds.  On the other hand, the Rotation<3> class
interprets as a 3x3 skew matrix (a tangent vector at the identity in
the matrix representation) even though the implementation used quaternion
coordinates.

To trick around this the use of exp methods with FieldVector<3> is avoided
by this patch.  A real fix would involve introducing a SkewMatrix class
and using that in Rotation<3>.
