Description

It'd be lovely to have Julia code for the metis hierarchy.

hier = metis_hierarchy(A;...)
hier.nlevels
hier.graphs # Arrary of SparseMatrix types...

along with some restriction and propagation functions to translate data between levels. This would make a pure Julia Neo-K-means implementation easy.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the graph-algorithm entry points and any existing Metis-related code, then define the proposed metis_hierarchy API, including nlevels and graphs, plus restriction and propagation functions. Done means the hierarchy and level-transfer operations support the stated pure Julia Neo-K-means use case.
