darkstego 18bac3b615 Removed redundant variables in DecisionBuilder
The variable vector added several deravitive variable that needlessly
increased the size of the search tree. The change cuts the search tree
size significantly.

Least diff problem in Google CP Solver.
This model solves the following problem:
What is the smallest difference between two numbers X - Y
if you must use all the digits (0..9) exactly once.
Compare with the following models:

* ECLiPSE : http://www.hakank.org/eclipse/least_diff2.ecl
