/**
* A Deliberator takes in a poll's Tally, which holds the amount of judgments of each grade received
* by each Proposal, and outputs that poll's Result, that is the final rank of each Proposal.
*
* <p>Ranks start at 1 ("best"), and increment towards "worst". Two proposal may share the same
* rank, in extreme equality cases.
*
* <p>This is the main API of this library.
*
* <p>See MajorityJudgmentDeliberator for an implementation. One could implement other deliberators,
* such as: - CentralJudgmentDeliberator - UsualJudgmentDeliberator
