Description
With some solvers (e.g. Newton's method), it is possible to reuse some of the computations for solving the implicit differentiation linear system more efficiently. Since `@custom_root` and `@custom_fixed_point` accept a `solve` argument for specifying a linear solver, the output of the forward pass solver could be given as an argument to `solve`.
