New description:

 This patch overhauls, consolidates, fixes and expands matrix augmentation
 and stacking.

 Fixes:
   * subdivisions of matrices are generally not preserved under these
 operations, but now are

 Features:
   * a vector may now be supplied as a second argument across all routines

 Consolidation:
   * there is some standardization of variable names and techniques across
 the routines

 Expansion:
   * augment() for dense integer matrices is uncommented and working now

 Documentation:
   * new features (vector argument, subdivisions) have been documented
 where added
   * a general upgrade in documentation would be valuable, on another
 ticket

 To Do:
   * work to have result formed over a common ring

 "general" patch adds vector argument and subdivision support to the
 generic `stack()` method.  Subdivision management is split out as helper
 methods for use with routines in the "special" patch.

 "special" patch works on routines for dense integer matrices, mod 2
 matrices, and generic sparse matrices.  It also moves the generic matrix
 `augment()`  to a better location in the source (it was left in place so
 changes could be seen more readily on the "general" patch).

 Apply:
  1. [attachment:trac_10974_stack-augment-general.patch]
  1. [attachment:trac_10974_stack-augment-special.patch]
  1. [attachment:trac_10974_stack-augment.reviewer-v2.patch]
