 This patch allows us to count the number of spanning trees in a simple
 graph, as well as the spanning out-trees from a user-defined root node in
 a digraph.

 Method used: Kirchhoff's matrix tree theorem [1] and the Laplacian matrix
 for the simple graphs, and a variation of the same [2] in the directed
 case.
