        String sourceVariableName
        The source planning variable is a chained planning variable that leads to the anchor.

        Both the genuine variable and the shadow variable should be consistent: if A chains to B, then A must have the same anchor as B (unless B is the anchor).

        When the Solver changes a genuine variable, it adjusts the shadow variable accordingly. In practice, the Solver ignores shadow variables (except for consistency housekeeping).

        Returns:
        the variable property name on this entity class that leads to the anchor
