 * @brief  closecuts meta separator
 * @author Marc Pfetsch
 *
 * This separator generates a convex combination of the current LP solution and either the best
 * primal feasible solution or an interior point of the LP relaxation. If the convex combination is
 * proper, the new point is closer to the convex hull of the feasible points. The separator then
 * calls all other separators to separate this point. The idea is that in this way possibly "deeper"
 * cuts are generated. Note, however, that the new point is not a basic solution, i.e., separators
 * relying basis information, e.g., Gomory cuts, will not work.
