  // Set the Belos solver's parameter list to scale its residual norms
  // in the specified way.
  //
  // We break this out in a separate function because the parameters
  // to set depend on which parameters the Belos solver supports.  Not
  // all Belos solvers support both the "Implicit Residual Scaling"
  // and "Explicit Residual Scaling" parameters, so we have to check
  // the solver's list of valid parameters for the existence of these.
  //
  // Scaling options: Belos lets you decide whether the solver will
  // scale residual norms by the (left-)preconditioned initial
  // residual norms (residualScalingType = "Norm of Initial
  // Residual"), or by the unpreconditioned initial residual norms
  // (residualScalingType = "Norm of RHS").  Usually you want to scale
  // by the unpreconditioned initial residual norms.  This is because
  // preconditioning is just an optimization, and you really want to
  // make ||B - AX|| small, rather than ||M B - M (A X)||.  If you're
  // measuring ||B - AX|| and scaling by the initial residual, you
  // should use the unpreconditioned initial residual to match it.
  //
  // Note, however, that the implicit residual test computes
  // left-preconditioned residuals, if a left preconditioner was
  // provided.  That's OK because when Belos solvers (at least the
  // GMRES variants) are given a left preconditioner, they first check
  // the implicit residuals.  If those converge, they then check the
  // explicit residuals.  The explicit residual test does _not_ apply
  // the left preconditioner when computing the residual.  The
  // implicit residual test is just an optimization so that Belos
  // doesn't have to compute explicit residuals B - A*X at every
  // iteration.  This is why we use the same scaling factor for both
  // the implicit and explicit residuals.
  //
  // Arguments:
  //
  // solverParams [in/out] Parameters for the current solve.
  //
  // solverValidParams [in] Valid parameter list for the Belos solver.
  //   Result of calling the solver's getValidParameters() method.
  //
  // residualScalingType [in] String describing how the solver should
  //   scale residuals.  Valid values include "Norm of RHS" and "Norm
  //   of Initial Residual" (these are the only two options this file
  //   currently uses, though Belos offers other options).

    // Many Belos solvers (especially the GMRES variants) define both
    // "Implicit Residual Scaling" and "Explicit Residual Scaling"
    // options.

    // "Implicit" means "the left-preconditioned approximate
    // a.k.a. 'recursive' residual as computed by the Krylov method."
    //
    // "Explicit" means ||B - A*X||, the unpreconditioned, "exact"
    // residual.
    //
    // Belos' GMRES implementations chain these two tests in sequence.
    // Implicit comes first, and explicit is not evaluated unless
    // implicit passes.  In some cases (e.g., no left preconditioner),
    // GMRES _only_ uses the implicit tests.  This means that only
    // setting "Explicit Residual Scaling" won't change the solver's
    // behavior.  Stratimikos tends to prefer using a right
    // preconditioner, in which case setting only the "Explicit
    // Residual Scaling" argument has no effect.  Furthermore, if
    // "Explicit Residual Scaling" is set to something other than the
    // default (initial residual norm), without "Implicit Residual
    // Scaling" getting the same setting, then the implicit residual
    // test will be using a radically different scaling factor than
    // the user wanted.
