NormalsReorderAndAccumulate

This program accumulates inputfileNormalEquations with respect to the parameter names and writes the total combined system to outputfileNormalequation.

The combined normal equation is extended to include all parameter names uniquely from all input normals. The input normals are sorted so that parameters with the same name are accumulated. This requires that the names in each normal equation are unique.

The output can be written as multiple small block files with outBlockSize, or as single block with outBlockSize=0, or blocked with respect to the first part of the parameter names (object), if outBlockSize left empty.
