New description:
Presently, proper initialization of a `Matrix` (inherited) object implies
the creation of a `Mutability` object, which needs a memory allocation of
its own. Since it's just a single flag, `Matrix` can just have this
without linking to a separate class. Hopefully this speeds up Matrix
creation sufficiently that `sage.matrix.matrix_integer_2x2` can afford to
just call it.
