...with a notebook showing equivalence of this new version.

I will update the lyx file soon, as well, and include the pdf in the PR comment. Bottom line: the initial mechanism of providing an initial covariance to the CombinedImuFactor was misguided: this should be done by adding a prior to the first bias; the factor graph machinery will take care of the rest.

I have a feeling the formatter is off so I recommend looking into that, but also CI is failing?
