ADT: Add DAGDeltaAlgorithm, which is a DAG minimization algorithm built on top of the standard 'delta debugging' algorithm.

 - This can give substantial speedups in the delta process for inputs we can construct dependency information for.

+/// DAGDeltaAlgorithm - Implements a "delta debugging" algorithm for minimizing
+/// directed acyclic graphs using a predicate function.
+///
+/// The result of the algorithm is a subset of the input change set which is
+/// guaranteed to satisfy the predicate, assuming that the input set did. For
+/// well formed predicates, the result set is guaranteed to be such that
+/// removing any single element not required by the dependencies on the other
+/// elements would falsify the predicate.
+///
+/// The DAG should be used to represent dependencies in the changes which are
+/// likely to hold across the predicate function. That is, for a particular
+/// changeset S and predicate P:
+///
+///   P(S) => P(S union pred(S))
+///
+/// The minization algorithm uses this dependency information to attempt to
+/// eagerly prune large subsets of changes. As with \see DeltaAlgorithm, the DAG
+/// is not required to satisfy this property, but the algorithm will run
+/// substantially fewer tests with appropriate dependencies. \see DeltaAlgorithm
+/// for more information on the properties which the predicate function itself
+/// should satisfy.
