| Unify constraints
co_merge(+Var, +ConstraintList)
When constraint variables are unified, then their associated constraints
also have to be unified. This is the job of co_merge/2.
The list of individual constraints must be combined into a new constraint,
which can then be again associated with the constraint variable with co_add/2.
If the individual constraints cause a contradiction, then the predicate
shall fail.
Before co_merge/2 is invoked, the associated constraint variable is
turned into a normal variable. Only after the following invokation
of co_add/2 and of course upon backtracking it becomes a constraint
variable again.
