Gilles commented on MATH-1008:
------------------------------

I wish to proceed as I proposed; the move seems adequate according to the first 
line of [that page|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-linear_least_squares].

If and when someone comes up with implementations of a broader class of 
optimizers of which the current "LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer" will be a 
subclass, it will be possible to refactor again if another package layout is 
deemed more appropriate.

Moreover, doing the move now has practical objectives:
* Provide a testing field for the "fluent API" (as agreed on the "dev" ML) 
without cluttering the existing classes.
* Make it possible to further clean up the classes without being encumbered 
with compatibility-breaking considerations.

Any technical objection?
