  /**
   * Operator class performing Newton's iteration with standard step
   * size control and adaptive matrix generation.
   *
   * This class performs a Newton iteration up to convergence
   * determined by #control. If after an update the norm of the residual
   * has become larger, then step size control is activated and the
   * update is subsequently divided by two until the residual actually
   * becomes smaller (or the minimal scaling factor determined by
   * #n_stepsize_iterations is reached).
   *
   * Since assembling matrices, depending on the implementation, tends
   * to be costly, this method applies an adaptive reassembling
   * strategy. Only if the reduction factor for the residual is more
   * than #threshold, the event Algorithms::bad_derivative is submitted to
   * #inverse_derivative. It is up to this object to implement
   * reassembling accordingly.
   *
   * <h3>Contents of the NamedData objects</h3>
   *
   * The only value used by the Newton method is the first vector in the
   * parameter <tt>out</tt> of operator()(). It serves as the start
   * vector of Newton's method and in the end contains the solution. All
   * other vectors of <tt>out</tt> are ignored by Newton's method and
   * its inner Operator objects. All vectors of <tt>in</tt> are forwarded to
   * the inner Operator objects, with additional information added as follows.
   *
   * When calling (*#residual)(), the NamedData <tt>in</tt> given to the
   * Newton iteration is prepended by a vector <tt>"Newton iterate"</tt>,
   * the current value of the Newton iterate, which can be used to
   * evaluate the residual at this point.
   *
   * For the call to (*#inverse_derivative), the vector <tt>"Newton
   * residual"</tt> is inserted before <tt>"Newton iterate"</tt>.
