    This is an algorithm devised by Aaron Bentley, because applying Dijkstra

    backwards seemed too complicated.

    For each node, we walk its descendants.  If all the descendant's ancestors

    have a max-distance-to-start, (excluding ones that can never reach start),

    we calculate their max-distance-to-start, and schedule their descendants.

    So when a node's last parent acquires a distance, it will acquire a

    distance on the next iteration.

    Once we know the max distances for all nodes, we can return a list sorted

    by distance, farthest first.
