/* This routine is very tricky (I believe it is rarely used with this kind of graph so just provide a simple but not-optimal implementation).

   Suppose we have three ranks. Rank 0 has a root with value 1. Rank 0,1,2 has a leaf with value 2,3,4 respectively. The leaves are connected
   to the root on rank 0. Suppose op=MPI_SUM and rank 0,1,2 gets root state in their rank order. By definition of this routine, rank 0 sees 1
   in root, fetches it into its leafupate, then updates root to 1 + 2 = 3; rank 1 sees 3 in root, fetches it into its leafupate, then updates
   root to 3 + 3 = 6; rank 2 sees 6 in root, fetches it into its leafupdate, then updates root to 6 + 4 = 10.  At the end, leafupdate on rank
   0,1,2 is 1,3,6 respectively. root is 10.

   One optimized implementation could be: starting from the initial state:
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4

   Shift leaves rightwards to leafupdate. Rank 0 gathers the root value and puts it in leafupdate. We have:
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  1       2         3

   Then, do MPI_Scan on leafupdate and get:
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  1       3         6

   Rank 2 sums its leaf and leafupdate, scatters the result to the root, and gets
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     10
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  1       3         6

   We use a simpler implementation. From the same initial state, we copy leafdata to leafupdate
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  2       3         4

   Do MPI_Exscan on leafupdate,
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  2       2         5

   BcastAndOp from root to leafupdate,
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  3       3         6

   Copy root to leafupdate on rank-0
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     1
        Leaf     2       3         4
     Leafupdate  1       3         6

   Reduce from leaf to root,
             rank-0   rank-1    rank-2
        Root     10
        Leaf     2       3         4
