//! Equilibrate a ThermoPhase object
/*!
 *  Set a single-phase chemical solution to chemical equilibrium. This is a
 *  convenience function that uses one or the other of the two chemical
 *  equilibrium solvers. The XY parameter indicates what two thermodynamic
 *  quantities, other than element composition, are to be held constant during
 *  the equilibration process.
 *
 *  @param s         ThermoPhase object that will be equilibrated.
 *  @param XY        String representation of what two properties
 *                   are being held constant
 *  @param solver    ID of the solver to be used to equilibrate the phase.
 *                   If solver = 0, the ChemEquil solver will be used,
 *                   and if solver = 1, the
 *                   MultiPhaseEquil solver will be used (slower than ChemEquil,
 *                   but more stable). If solver < 0 (default, then ChemEquil will
 *                   be tried first, and if it fails MultiPhaseEquil will be tried.
 *  @param rtol      Relative tolerance
 *  @param maxsteps  Maximum number of steps to take to find the solution
 *  @param maxiter   For the MultiPhaseEquil solver only, this is
 *                   the maximum number of outer temperature or pressure iterations
 *                   to take when T and/or P is not held fixed.
 *  @param loglevel  loglevel Controls amount of diagnostic output. loglevel
 *                   = 0 suppresses diagnostics, and increasingly-verbose messages
 *                   are written as loglevel increases.
 *
 * @return The number of iterations it took to equilibrate the system.
 * @deprecated Use ThermoPhase::equilibrate instead. To be removed after Cantera 2.2.
