/** Abstract base class for `objects'.
    It now just has stuff that OsiObject does not have

  The branching model used in Cbc is based on the idea of an <i>object</i>.
  In the abstract, an object is something that has a feasible region, can be
  evaluated for infeasibility, can be branched on (<i>i.e.</i>, there's some
  constructive action to be taken to move toward feasibility), and allows
  comparison of the effect of branching.

  This class (CbcObject) is the base class for an object. To round out the
  branching model, the class CbcBranchingObject describes how to perform a
  branch, and the class CbcBranchDecision describes how to compare two
  CbcBranchingObjects.

  To create a new type of object you need to provide three methods:
  #infeasibility(), #feasibleRegion(), and #createCbcBranch(), described below.

  This base class is primarily virtual to allow for any form of structure.
  Any form of discontinuity is allowed.

  \todo The notion that all branches are binary (two arms) is wired into the
        implementation of CbcObject, CbcBranchingObject, and
        CbcBranchDecision. Changing this will require a moderate amount of
        recoding.

    /** Infeasibility of the object

        This is some measure of the infeasibility of the object. It should be
        scaled to be in the range [0.0, 0.5], with 0.0 indicating the object
        is satisfied.

        The preferred branching direction is returned in preferredWay,

        This is used to prepare for strong branching but should also think of
        case when no strong branching

        The object may also compute an estimate of cost of going "up" or "down".
        This will probably be based on pseudo-cost ideas
