  /** A default solver for the model brick system.
  Of course it could be not very well suited for a particular
  problem, so it could be copied and adapted to change solvers,
  add a special traitement on the problem, etc ...  This is in
  fact a model for your own solver.
 
  For small problems, a direct solver is used
  (getfem::SuperLU_solve), for larger problems, a conjugate
  gradient gmm::cg (if the problem is coercive) or a gmm::gmres is
  used (preconditioned with an incomplete factorization).
 
  When MPI/METIS is enabled, a partition is done via METIS, and a parallel
  solver can be used.
 
  Note that it is possible to disable some variables
  (see the md.disable_variable(varname) method) in order to
  solve the problem only with respect to a subset of variables (the
  disabled variables are the considered as data) for instance to
  replace the global Newton strategy with a fixed point one.
