KSPPIPEBCGS
Implements the pipelined BiCGStab method. This method has only two non-blocking reductions per iteration, compared to 3 blocking for standard FBCGS. The
non-blocking reductions are overlapped by matrix-vector products and preconditioner applications.
Periodic residual replacement may be used to increase robustness and maximal attainable accuracy.

Notes: Like KSPFBCGS, the KSPPIPEBCGS implementation only allows for right preconditioning.
MPI configuration may be necessary for reductions to make asynchronous progress, which is important for
performance of pipelined methods. See the FAQ on the PETSc website for details.
