Solves the LP relaxation of the currently loaded instance. After this

"""
Solves the currently loaded instance. After this method finishes,
the best solution found can be retrieved by calling `get_solution`.
Parameters
----------
iteration_cb: IterationCallback
By default, InternalSolver makes a single call to the native `solve`
method and returns the result. If an iteration callback is provided
instead, InternalSolver enters a loop, where `solve` and `iteration_cb`
are called alternatively. To stop the loop, `iteration_cb` should return
False. Any other result causes the solver to loop again.
lazy_cb: LazyCallback
This function is called whenever the solver finds a new candidate
solution and can be used to add lazy constraints to the model. Only the
following operations within the callback are allowed:
- Querying the value of a variable
- Querying if a constraint is satisfied
- Adding a new constraint to the problem
Additional operations may be allowed by specific subclasses.
user_cut_cb: UserCutCallback
This function is called whenever the solver found a new integer-infeasible
solution and needs to generate cutting planes to cut it off.
tee: bool
If true, prints the solver log to the screen.

The concrete optimization model corresponding to this instance
