+ New: For recognizing a diverging solver before the maximum
+ number of steps is reached, <code
+ class="class">SolverControl</code> returns <code
+ class="member">failure</code> also if the residual increases
+ the start residual by a specific factor. This factor is given
+ to the <code class="class">SolverControl</code> by the <code
+ class="member">set_failure_criterion</code> function. After
+ calling the latter function the checking of this additional
+ failure criterion may again be disabled by calling <code
+ class="member">clear_failure_criterion</code>.

Improved: The interface of preconditioner classes has changed.
Preconditioners are now considered linear operators like

+ New: The new function <code class="member">get_face</code>
+ of <code class="class">FEFaceValues</code> and <code
+ class="class">FESubfaceValues</code> returns an iterator of the

+ class="class">FE(Sub)FaceValues</code> object was reinited
+ the last time.
