Notes: To use a Krylov method inside the composite preconditioner, set the <A HREF="../PC/PCType.html#PCType">PCType</A> of one or more
inner PCs to be <A HREF="../PC/PCKSP.html#PCKSP">PCKSP</A>.
Using a Krylov method inside another Krylov method can be dangerous (you get divergence or
the incorrect answer) unless you use <A HREF="../KSP/KSPFGMRES.html#KSPFGMRES">KSPFGMRES</A> as the other Krylov method
