Before people more competent than myself do any further theorization:
this module is a remnant of eigen1. It does total least squares, yes.

Feel free to:
 - rename it
 - rename stuff inside it
 - etc

sounds reasonable.

Perhaps fitHyperplane has just enough code inside of it to justify its
existence?
OK to remove linearRegression.
