Implement in Scheme the algorithm described below in the attached document.

;; c4-linearize head parents get-precedence-list suffix? [eq [get-name]]
;;   -> (values precedence-list super-suffix-or-#f)
;;
;; Compute the precedence list for a specification.
;;   head               - prefix list to prepend (typically (list x) or '())
;;   parents            - list of totally-ordered parent chains (each chain is a list);
;;                        supports an arbitrary DAG for the local precedence order,
;;                        e.g. '((A B C)) for a single chain, or '((A B) (C A)) for a DAG.
