+/**
+ * Finds the head(s) of the release sequence(s) containing a given ModelAction.
+ * The ModelAction under consideration is expected to be taking part in
+ * release/acquire synchronization as an object of the "reads from" relation.
+ * Note that this can only provide release sequence support for RMW chains
+ * which do not read from the future, as those actions cannot be traced until
+ * their "promise" is fulfilled. Similarly, we may not even establish the
+ * presence of a release sequence with certainty, as some modification order
+ * constraints may be decided further in the future. Thus, this function
+ * "returns" two pieces of data: a pass-by-reference vector of @a release_heads
+ * and a boolean representing certainty.
+ *
+ * @todo Finish lazy updating, when promises are fulfilled in the future
+ * @param rf The action that might be part of a release sequence. Must be a
+ * write.
+ * @param release_heads A pass-by-reference style return parameter.  After
+ * execution of this function, release_heads will contain the heads of all the
+ * relevant release sequences, if any exists
+ * @return true, if the ModelChecker is certain that release_heads is complete;
+ * false otherwise
