  \brief Computes the condition numbers of the corner's of elements
  connected to the given vertex and then averages those values.

  The metric does not use the sample point functionality or the
  compute_weighted_jacobian.  It uses the isotropic ideal
  element.  This metric does require a feasible region, and
  the metric needs to be minimized.
