Maybe, but are we really getting rid of vec_sol_always or just renaming
it to vec_sol and being careful not to update vec_sol until after the
step has been accepted?  The first doesn't work because you lose the
ability to reject a step, the latter is fine, but it means that the
method always needs to make private vectors to hold the solution while
solving the stages.

Is there a reason that SNES can't own the residual?  Is it indeed the
case that it will only be updated by SNESTSFormFunction?
