Built in solver #143

I would like to see a sudoku solver added to OpenSudoku. I am a software 
developer and have ported and modified a C solver written by Bill DuPree to 
Java, which I would be more than willing to supply to the project.

If implemented, I would hope to see 2 new menu options when playing a Sudoku: 
(1) "Check" and (2) "Solve". The "Check" option would call the solver to see if 
the current board is solvable, but would not return the solution. The "Solve" 
option would immediately solve the puzzle (if possible). If either option was 
used at any point in playing the game I would mark the game as "cheated" (or 
some such term) and would display it as such in the folder listing.

Hi, I put my point of view on how this should be implement in wiki page 
http://code.google.com/p/opensudoku-android/wiki/Solver. Feel free to comment 
there.

You can of course reach me also via mail or gtalk for chat. I should really 
setup a mailing list.

Also please note that there is already one solver effort under way so I'm 
marking this issue as duplicate. In other issue there is patch attached, the 
solving code is however missing, so right now I don't know whether it is usable 
or not.
