*Description*
-------------
Calc now has a linear optimization solver. It finds a set of input
values that maximize or minimize an objective function, while
satisfying a set of constraints.
A linear programming model is defined by formulas in spreadsheet
cells, the objective and constraints are specified in a dialog. Input
variables can be defined to be integer or binary (mixed integer linear
programming).
The dialog is prepared to make use of other implementations of the
com.sun.star.sheet.Solver service, so future extensions might add
capabilities for different kinds of problems.
