WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
A solver defines the parameter update rule for a single layer in a deep
neural network. It takes a parameter gradient vector and the layer's
parameters and tells you how the parameters should be updated.
Importantly, each solver instance is used with only one layer in a network.
This allows us to define solvers that have per layer state, for example, a
solver may keep a momentum term and apply it to its update rule.
Note that there is no dlib::EXAMPLE_SOLVER type. It is shown here purely
to document the interface a solver object must implement.

WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
This object implements the EXAMPLE_SOLVER interface defined above. It is a
basic stochastic gradient descent solver which uses momentum and weight
decay. In particular, it computes the update vector V according to:
V = momentum*V - weight_decay*learning_rate*l.get_layer_params() - learning_rate*params_grad;
Here V is a momentum term that is remembered by the solver from one
invocation of operator() to the next.
Note that the actual learning rate and weight decay used by the solver are
multiplied by the per layer multipliers. That is, the solver will call
get_learning_rate_multiplier(l) and get_weight_decay_multiplier(l) and
multiply these values with the nominal learning rate and weight decay,
respectively, to determine the values it will use during each step. It is
also overloaded to allow additional learning rate multipliers to be applied
to fc_ and con_ bias parameters.
