  * @brief  constraint handler for linking binary variables to an integer variable
  * @author Stefan Heinz
  * @author Jens Schulz
  *
  * The constraints handler stores linking constraints between an integer variable and an array of binary variables. Such
  * a linking constraint has the form:
  * \f[
  * y = \sum_{i=1}^n {c_i * x_i}
  * \f]
  * with integer variable \f$ y \f$, binary variables \f$ x_1, \dots, x_n \f$ and offset \f$b \in Q\f$, and
  * with the additional side condition that exactly one binary variable has to be one (set partitioning condition).
  *
  * This constraint can be created only with the integer variable. In this case the binary variables are only created on
  * demand. That is, whenever someone asks for the binary variables. Therefore, such constraints can be used to get a
  * "binary representation" of the domain of the integer variable which will be dynamically created.
