/** calls domain propagation for a given set of constraints
 *
 *  The algorithm alternates calls of forward and reverse propagation.
 *  Forward propagation ensures that activity of expressions is up to date.
 *  Reverse propagation tries to derive tighter variable bounds by reversing the activity computation, using the constraints
 *  [lhs,rhs] interval as starting point.
 *
 *  The propagation algorithm works as follows:
 *   1. apply forward propagation (update activities) for all constraints not marked as propagated
 *   2. if presolve or propauxvars is disabled: collect expressions for which the constraint sides provide tighter bounds
 *      if solve and propauxvars is enabled: collect expressions for which auxvars (including those in root exprs)
 *      provide tighter bounds
 *   3. apply reverse propagation to all collected expressions; don't explore
 *      sub-expressions which have not changed since the beginning of the propagation loop
 *   4. if we have found enough tightenings go to 1, otherwise leave propagation loop
 *
 *  @note After calling forward propagation for a constraint, we mark this constraint as propagated. This flag might be
 *  reset during the reverse propagation when we find a bound tightening of a variable expression contained in the
 *  constraint. Resetting this flag is done in the EVENTEXEC callback of the event handler
 *
 *  TODO should we distinguish between expressions where activity information is used for separation and those where not,
 *    e.g., try less to propagate on convex constraints?

/** main function for adding locks to expressions and variables
 *
 * Locks for a nonlinear constraint are used to update locks for all sub-expressions and variables.
 * Locks of expressions depend on the monotonicity of expressions w.r.t. their children, e.g.,
 * consider the constraint \f$x^2 \leq 1\f$ with \f$x \in [-2,-1]\f$ implies an up-lock for the root
 * expression (pow) and a down-lock for its child \f$x\f$ because \f$x^2\f$ is decreasing on [-2,-1].
 * Since the monotonicity (and thus the locks) might also depend on variable bounds, the function remembers
 * the computed monotonicity information of each expression until all locks of an expression have been removed,
 * which implies that updating the monotonicity information during the next locking of this expression does not
 * break existing locks.
 *
 * @note When modifying the structure of an expression, e.g., during simplification, it is necessary to remove all
 *       locks from an expression and repropagating them after the structural changes have been applied.
 *       Because of existing common sub-expressions, it might be necessary to remove the locks of all constraints
 *       to ensure that an expression is unlocked (see canonicalizeConstraints() for an example)

 *
 * Before reformulating \f$x_i x_j\f$ in this way, it is checked whether there is a clique that contains \f$x_i\f$ and \f$x_j\f$.
 * These cliques allow for a better reformulation. There are four cases:
 *
 *    1. \f$x_i + x_j \leq 1\f$ implies that \f$x_i x_j = 0\f$
 *    2. \f$x_i + (1 - x_j) \leq 1\f$ implies \f$x_i x_j = x_i\f$
 *    3. \f$(1 - x_i) + x_j \leq 1\f$ implies \f$x_i x_j = x_j\f$
 *    4. \f$(1 - x_i) + (1 - x_j) \leq 1\f$ implies \f$x_i x_j = x_i + x_j - 1\f$
 *
 * The reformulation using \f$z_{ij}\f$ or the cliques is implemented in getBinaryProductExpr().
 *
 * Introducing too many extra variables and constraints can have a negative impact on the performance (e.g., due to
 * slow probing). For this reason, it is checked in getFactorizedBinaryQuadraticExpr() whether \f$\sum_{i,j} Q_{ij} x_i x_j\f$
 * contains large (&ge; `reformbinprodsfac` parameter) lower sums of the form \f$x_i \sum_j Q_{ij} x_j\f$.
 * Such a lower sum is reformulated with only one extra variable w_i:
 * \f{align}{
 *    \text{maxact} & := \sum_j \max(0, Q_{ij}), \\
 *    \text{minact} & := \sum_j \min(0, Q_{ij}), \\
 *    \text{minact}\, x_i & \leq w_i, \\
 *    w_i &\leq \text{maxact}\, x_i, \\
 *    \text{minact} &\leq \sum_j Q_{ij} x_j - w_i + \text{minact}\, x_i \\
 *    \text{maxact} &\geq \sum_j Q_{ij} x_j - w_i + \text{maxact}\, x_i
 * \f}
 * We mark \f$w_i\f$ to be implicit integer if all \f$Q_{ij}\f$ are integer. After each replacement of a lower sum, it
 * is checked whether there are enough terms left to factorize other binary variables. Lower sums with a larger number
 * of terms are prioritized.

 * Using a lot of handwaving, we claim that

 * We use row-is-local as proxy for estimator-depending-on-lower-bounds.
 *

 *
 * TODO if we branch also on auxiliary variables, then separating z from the x-variables in the row a'x+b <= z should happen;
