 * @todo Possibly implement the access of bounds of multi-aggregated variables by accessing the
 * corresponding linear constraint if it exists. This seems to require some work, since the linear
 * constraint has to be stored. Moreover, it has even to be created in case the original constraint
 * was deleted after multi-aggregation, but the bounds of the multi-aggregated variable should be
 * changed. This has to be done with care in order to not loose the performance gains of
 * multi-aggregation.

    * Here is an example. Assume we have the multi-aggregation z = x + y.
    * z occures with positive coefficient in a <= constraint c1, so it has an uplock from there.
    * When the multi-aggregation is performed, all locks are added to the active representation,
    * so x and y both get an uplock from c1. However, z was not yet replaced by x + y in c1.
    * Next, a negation y = 1 - x is identified. Again, locks are moved, so that the uplock of y originating
    * from c1 is added to x as a downlock. Thus, x has both an up- and downlock from c1.
    * The multi-aggregation changes to z = x + 1 - x, which corresponds to the locks.
    * However, before z is replaced by that sum, SCIPvarFlattenAggregationGraph() is called
    * which changes z = x + y = x + 1 - x = 1, since it merges multiple occurences of the same variable.
    * The up- and downlock of x, however, is not removed when replacing z in c1 by its active representation,
    * because it is just 1 now. Therefore, we need to update locks when flattening the aggregation graph.
    * For this, the multi-aggregated variable knows its locks in addition to adding them to the active
    * representation, which corresponds to the locks from constraints where the variable was not replaced yet.
    * By removing the locks here, based on the old representation and adding them again after flattening,
    * we ensure that the locks are correct afterwards if coefficients were merged.

    * Note, that there are two cases where SCIPvarFlattenAggregationGraph() is called: The easier one is that it is
    * called while installing the multi-aggregation. in principle, the described issue could be handled straightforward
    * in this case by aggregating or fixing the variable instead.  The more complicated case is the one, when the
    * multi-aggregation is used, e.g., in linear presolving (and the variable is already declared to be multi-aggregated).
    *
    * By now, it is not allowed to fix or aggregate multi-aggregated variables which would be necessary in this case.
    *
    * The same issue appears in the SCIPvarGetProbvar...() methods.
