- Add an opt-in SIMD support for the module. The feature requires crate
`simd` and specialization, thus can only be enabled under nightly. Under
the given benchmark certain operations were able to be up to 60% faster.
Currently the supported types as well as operations are highly limited.
- Clean up some deadly tests. Also add new tests for SIMD.
Moved the old source code temporarily to src-old. This will be removed once the functionality has been transferred over into the new system.
The new design is based on algebraic principles. Thanks goes to sebcrozet and his nalgebra library for providing the inspiration for the algebraic traits: https://github.com/sebcrozet/nalgebra
