Work_issues:  switch to FanMorphism  |  
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------

Comment(by novoselt):

 I'll post an updated patch with `FanMorphism` shortly.

 Regarding `image_cone` and `preimage_cones` - I guess we want them to work
 for arbitrary cones of domain/codomain fans. In this case it is still
 clear what to return for `image_cone(cone)` - the smallest cone of the
 codomain fan which contains the image. But what about `preimage_cones`?
 Should we return all cones that are mapped to it, or only maximal ones?
 (We can also consider packing them into a fan, but in this case we loose
 connection with the domain fan, so I don't think that it is a good idea.)

 I am also not sure what would be an efficient way to determine preimage
 cones. I am thinking about determining rays that are mapped into the given
 codomain cone and then scanning trough all domain cones to see which are
 generated by such rays only. An alternative approach, which is likely to
 be better for intensive work with such cones, is to compute full
 dictionary for image cones and then revert it to get preimage ones. Any
 suggestions?
