New description:

 This is a follow-up on #18734.

 This ticket creates:
  - a new class, `LPBackendDictionary` (inheriting from
 `LPAbstractDictionary`), would avoid going through `InteractiveLP` and
 rather be tied directly to the MILP backend, using tableau data query
 functions such as `getBInvArow` etc.
 (It would be in a separate file perhaps
 `interactive_backend_dictionary.py`, so as not to add clutter to the
 didactical implementation in `interactive_simplex_method.py`.)

 #18732 added most of the missing functions for retrieving the data of the
 dictionary (for the GLPK backend) such as `getBInvARow` etc. (#18763 does
 the same for the COIN backend.)
 #18733 provides a common interface and corresponding
 `MixedIntegerLinearProgram` methods.

 Doctests could then test that:
  - A backend has implemented all the necessary methods to get tableau
 information.
  - The information is consistent, by checking that the
 `LPBackendDictionary` (in this ticket) and the `LPDictionary` (created in
 #18734) are the same.
