Notes: This solves the nonlinear system of equations F(x) = 0 using the nonlinear generalization of the conjugate
gradient method. This may be used with a nonlinear preconditioner used to pick the new search directions, but otherwise
chooses the initial search direction as F(x) for the initial guess x.
<P>
Only supports left non-linear preconditioning.
