## Optimization settings API

The optimization vocabulary of RFC 0004: *settings* are everything a user sets
to trade speed, accuracy or memory (the goal, the approximation gate, the knobs
and constant placement rules); a *knob* is a per-operator mechanism with a
closed set of values plus ``auto``. The knob registry (``KNOBS``) drives the
configuration checks, the operator handler, the optimization plan and the
hints; the plan and report models define the files every conversion writes.
