Comment:

 This patch adds a new helper function to compute the right kernel of a
 matrix in the trivial cases of zero rows or zero columns.  When the ring
 is not a field or a PID, it is not always possible to create the submodule
 needed as a return value.  So in these cases it gives an informative error
 message (which is the response to the bug).

 This function has been called in four places, and various doctests have
 been added.  This is the first step in refactoring and cleaning up some of
 the matrix code for kernels of matrices.
