The optimizers need tests.

The command-line optimization needs tests.

Ben suggested (on stan-dev) using the same kinds of tests as used for optimization in Eigen.

Just wanted to add some links to info -- Eigen's description of what they test (not too much info): http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/dox-devel/unsupported/group__NonLinearOptimization__Module.html

The actual tests are now in lib/eigen_3.2.0/unsupported/test/NonLinearOptimization.cpp
