| Subject: | Layouter fails to detect "overlapping nodes" |

In the case of:
$ echo "[A] [B] { origin: A; offset: 1,0; } [C] { origin: A; offset: 1,0;
}" |perl -Ilib bin/graph-easy
Both B and C occupy the same space. The layouter fails to detect this
condition and endlessly retries the layout until the timeout occurs.
The expected behaviour would be:
If failed to place C (or B), check that the already placed node and the
currently to be placed node have a grandparent and both are the same
(here: A) and if so, emit an error and abort the layout process.
Proposed text:
"Error: Relative placement of B overlaps with C, cannot finish layout.
Please correct input."
