------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Patch implements solving a linear system of equations in the most naive
way possible, just augmenting the matrix and row-reducing.
For fields like `ZZ`, `QQ`, and integers mod p, this can be 3% to 10%
faster. For fields that use echelon form to get rank, this can be twice
as fast since we only row-reduce once, not twice. Matrices full of
integers mod p can be a toss-up as the number of columns in the constant
matrix is about 10 times greater than for the coefficient matrix.
Timings below and script that produced them is attached.
This has the old doctests, which pass with the new method (except two
trivial failures). Old method is included as {{{solve_left_old()}}} for
ease of testing timings. This is fully functional, but will need just a
bit more work to be ready, so this is up for comments and suggestions at
the moment.
