        The preference is defined as "I think this requirement should be

        this group of arguments is.

        :param identifier: An identifier as returned by ``identify()``. This
            identifies the dependency matches of which should be returned.
        :param resolutions: Mapping of candidates currently pinned by the
            resolver. Each key is an identifier, and the value a candidate.

            Each value is an iterator of *requirement information*.

        A *requirement information* instance is a named tuple with two members:

        * ``requirement`` specifies a requirement contributing to the current
          list of candidates.
        * ``parent`` specifies the candidate that provides (dependend on) the
          requirement, or ``None`` to indicate a root requirement.

        The preference could depend on a various of issues, including (not
        necessarily in this order):

        * Is this package pinned in the current resolution result?
        * How relaxed is the requirement? Stricter ones should probably be
          worked on first? (I don't know, actually.)
        * How many possibilities are there to satisfy this requirement? Those
          with few left should likely be worked on first, I guess?
        * Are there any known conflicts for this requirement? We should
          probably work on those with the most known conflicts.

        A sortable value should be returned (this will be used as the ``key``
        parameter of the built-in sorting function). The smaller the value is,
        the more preferred this requirement is (i.e. the sorting function
        is called with ``reverse=False``).

            candidates must satisfy. Each key is an identifier, and the value
            an iterator of requirements for that dependency.
        :param incompatibilities: A mapping of known incompatibilities of
            each dependency. Each key is an identifier, and the value an
            iterator of incompatibilities known to the resolver. All

        For VCS, local, and archive requirements, the one-and-only match is
        returned, and for a "named" requirement, the index(es) should be
        consulted to find concrete candidates for this requirement.

        The return value should produce candidates ordered by preference; the
        most preferred candidate should come first. The return type may be one
        of the following:

        * A callable that returns an iterator that yields candidates.
        * An collection of candidates.
