Detailed Description
helper class for one-asset implied-volatility calculationThe passed engine must be linked to the passed quote (see, e.g., VanillaOption to see how this can be achieved.)

The returned process is equal to the passed one, except for the volatility which is flat and whose value is driven by the passed quote.
