/*!
Solver for the point source localisation problem using a forward-backward splitting method.

This corresponds to the manuscript

 * Valkonen T. - _Proximal methods for point source localisation_,
   [arXiv:2212.02991](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.02991).

The main routine is [`pointsource_fb_reg`]. It is based on [`generic_pointsource_fb_reg`], which is
also used by our [primal-dual proximal splitting][crate::pdps] implementation.

FISTA-type inertia can also be enabled through [`FBConfig::meta`].

## Problem

<p>
Our objective is to solve
$$
    \min_{μ ∈ ℳ(Ω)}~ F_0(Aμ-b) + α \|μ\|_{ℳ(Ω)} + δ_{≥ 0}(μ),
$$
where $F_0(y)=\frac{1}{2}\|y\|_2^2$ and the forward operator $A \in 𝕃(ℳ(Ω); ℝ^n)$.
</p>

## Approach

<p>
As documented in more detail in the paper, on each step we approximately solve
$$
    \min_{μ ∈ ℳ(Ω)}~ F(x) + α \|μ\|_{ℳ(Ω)} + δ_{≥ 0}(x) + \frac{1}{2}\|μ-μ^k|_𝒟^2,
$$
where $𝒟: 𝕃(ℳ(Ω); C_c(Ω))$ is typically a convolution operator.
</p>

## Finite-dimensional subproblems.

With $C$ a projection from [`DiscreteMeasure`] to the weights, and $x^k$ such that $x^k=Cμ^k$, we
form the discretised linearised inner problem
<p>
$$
    \min_{x ∈ ℝ^n}~ τ\bigl(F(Cx^k) + [C^*∇F(Cx^k)]^⊤(x-x^k) + α {\vec 1}^⊤ x\bigr)
                    + δ_{≥ 0}(x) + \frac{1}{2}\|x-x^k\|_{C^*𝒟C}^2,
$$
equivalently
$$
    \begin{aligned}
    \min_x~ & τF(Cx^k) - τ[C^*∇F(Cx^k)]^⊤x^k + \frac{1}{2} (x^k)^⊤ C^*𝒟C x^k
            \\
            &
            - [C^*𝒟C x^k - τC^*∇F(Cx^k)]^⊤ x
            \\
            &
            + \frac{1}{2} x^⊤ C^*𝒟C x
            + τα {\vec 1}^⊤ x + δ_{≥ 0}(x),
    \end{aligned}
$$
In other words, we obtain the quadratic non-negativity constrained problem
$$
    \min_{x ∈ ℝ^n}~ \frac{1}{2} x^⊤ Ã x - b̃^⊤ x + c + τα {\vec 1}^⊤ x + δ_{≥ 0}(x).
$$
where
$$
   \begin{aligned}
    Ã & = C^*𝒟C,
    \\
    g̃ & = C^*𝒟C x^k - τ C^*∇F(Cx^k)
        = C^* 𝒟 μ^k - τ C^*A^*(Aμ^k - b)
    \\
    c & = τ F(Cx^k) - τ[C^*∇F(Cx^k)]^⊤x^k + \frac{1}{2} (x^k)^⊤ C^*𝒟C x^k
        \\
        &
        = \frac{τ}{2} \|Aμ^k-b\|^2 - τ[Aμ^k-b]^⊤Aμ^k + \frac{1}{2} \|μ_k\|_{𝒟}^2
        \\
        &
        = -\frac{τ}{2} \|Aμ^k-b\|^2 + τ[Aμ^k-b]^⊤ b + \frac{1}{2} \|μ_k\|_{𝒟}^2.
   \end{aligned}
$$
</p>

We solve this with either SSN or FB via [`quadratic_nonneg`] as determined by
[`InnerSettings`] in [`FBGenericConfig::inner`].

/// The operator `op𝒟` is used for forming the proximal term. Typically it is a convolution
/// operator. Finally, the `iterator` is an outer loop verbosity and iteration count control
/// as documented in [`alg_tools::iterate`].

/// For details on the mathematical formulation, see the [module level](self) documentation.
