When two successive UTXOs match in effective value and weight, we can
skip the second if the prior is not selected: adding it would create an
equivalent input set to a previously evaluated.
E.g. if we have three UTXOs with effective values {5, 3, 3} of the same
weight each, we want to evaluate
{5, _, _}, {5, 3, _}, {5, 3, 3}, {_, 3, _}, {_, 3, 3},
but skip {5, _, 3}, and {_, _, 3}, because the first 3 is not selected,
and we therefore do not need to evaluate the second 3 at the same
position in the input set.
If we reach the end of the branch, we must SHIFT the previously selected
UTXO group instead.
