tree ← wgraph ##.wspan from        ⍝ Spanning tree for weighted graph ⍺ from ⍵.

[wspan]  constructs  a  tree of the lowest-cost paths from the given root to all
accessible vertices of the weighted graph.

Each item of the vector result, with the exception of the root item (¯1), is the
index of the corresponding tree node's parent node.

Technical notes:

This coding differs slightly from classic breadth-first search, see →bfs←.

Examples:

    aa                  ⍝ simple weighted graph.
┌───┬─┬───┬───┬─┐
│2 3│3│2 4│1 5│3│
├───┼─┼───┼───┼─┤
│1 3│1│4 1│1 1│1│
└───┴─┴───┴───┴─┘

    aa wspan 1          ⍝ spanning tree for aa from vertex 1.
¯1 1 2 3 4
