  /** \brief A single distributed Boruvka merge step.
   *
   * A distributed Boruvka merge step involves computing (globally)
   * the minimum weight edges incident on each supervertex and then
   * merging supervertices along these edges. Once supervertices are
   * merged, self-loops are eliminated.
   *
   * The set of parameters passed to this algorithm is large, and
   * considering this algorithm in isolation there are several
   * redundancies. However, the more asymptotically efficient
   * distributed MSF algorithms require mixing Boruvka steps with the
   * merging of local MSFs (implemented in
   * merge_local_minimum_spanning_trees_step): the interaction of the
   * two algorithms mandates the addition of these parameters.
   *
   * \param pg The process group over which communication should be
   * performed. Within the distributed Boruvka algorithm, this will be
   * equivalent to \code process_group(g); however, in the context of
   * the mixed MSF algorithms, the process group @p pg will be a
   * (non-strict) process subgroup of \code process_group(g).
   *
   * \param g The underlying graph on which the MSF is being
   * computed. The type of @p g must model DistributedGraph, but there
   * are no other requirements because the edge and (super)vertex
   * lists are passed separately.
   *
   * \param weight_map Property map containing the weights of each
   * edge. The type of this property map must model
   * ReadablePropertyMap and must support caching.
   *
   * \param out An output iterator that will be written with the set
   * of edges selected to build the MSF. Every process within the
   * process group @p pg will receive all edges in the MSF.
   *
   * \param dset Disjoint sets data structure mapping from vertices in
   * the graph @p g to their representative supervertex.
   *
   * \param supervertex_map Mapping from supervertex descriptors to
   * indices.
   *
   * \param supervertices A vector containing all of the
   * supervertices. Will be modified to include only the remaining
   * supervertices after merging occurs.
   *
   * \param edge_list The list of edges that remain in the graph. This
   * list will be pruned to remove self-loops once MSF edges have been
   * found.
