Performance improvement of chain rule derivation
Commit 23b0c12d introduced caching in chain rule derivation (used by block decomposition), which increased speed for mfs > 0, but actually decreased it for mfs=0. This patch introduces the pre-computation of derivatives which are known to be zero using symbolic a priori (similarly to what is done in the non-chain rule context). The algorithms are now identical between the two contexts (both symbolic a priori + caching), the difference being that in the chain rule context, the symbolic a priori and the cache are not stored within the ExprNode class, since they depend on the list of recursive variables. This patch brings a significant performant improvement for all values of the “mfs” option (the improvement is greater for small values of “mfs”).
