Comment:

 This is a positive review for trac_8411.

 Prior to this patch, sage would not branch e.g. SO(3) x SO(3) -> SO(6)
 because this would embed a rank 2 group in a rank 3 group, and the
 get_branching_rule() code required the ranks to be equal.  After applying
 this patch, the "orthogonal_sum" rule will allow such branching (as the
 identity map) between types B/D, and within type C (only).

 This patch correctly implements useful mathematics.
