Variational (Courant–Fischer) upper bound for algebraic connectivity #

algConn_mul_sq_le: for any test vector x orthogonal to the all-ones vector (∑ i, x i = 0), the second-smallest Laplacian eigenvalue is bounded by the Rayleigh quotient of x, in division-free form algConn G * ‖x‖² ≤ xᵀ L x.

This is the reusable bridge both clauses of the ACMAX conjecture rely on.
