that eigen2 owes all its performance to nonstandard restrict keyword.
well, this can also improve portability in case some compiler doesn't have __restrict.
* EIGEN_ALIGN and EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN and the corresponding logic in Macros.h
(instead of using EIGEN_ARCH_WANTS_ALIGNMENT)
* The body of ei_aligned_malloc and ei_aligned_free
The reason for this backporting is that a user complained that with eigen 2.0 he got a warning at Memory.h:81 that the return value of posix_memalign was not used, and that function was declared with an attribute warn_unused_result.
Looking at this, it seemed that the body of this function was already overly complicated, and fixing this warning made it even worse, while the devel branch had a much simpler body and didn't suffer from that problem.
Then it was necessary to update ei_aligned_free too, and to backport EIGEN_ALIGN.
Inch' Allah....

This is what is needed to make Step (in KDE/kdeedu) build.
The rest of Eigen (outside of Sparse) is unaffected except for a few trivial changes that were needed.
calling this 2.0.3, will tag if no problem.
* try to be clever in matrix ctors and operator=: be lazy when we can, always allow
to copy rowvector into columnvector, check the template parameters,
try to factor the code better
* add missing copy ctor in UnalignedType
* fix bug in the traits of DiagonalProduct
* renaming: EIGEN_TUNE_FOR_CPU_CACHE_SIZE
* update the dox a little
order, one bit for enabling/disabling auto-alignment. If you want to
disable, do:
Matrix<float,4,1,Matrix_DontAlign>
The Matrix_ prefix is the only way I can see to avoid
ambiguity/pollution. The old RowMajor, ColMajor constants are
deprecated, remain for now.
* this prompted several improvements in matrix_storage. ei_aligned_array
renamed to ei_matrix_array and moved there. The %16==0 tests are now
much more centralized in 1 place there.
* unalignedassert test: updated
* update FindEigen2.cmake from KDElibs
* determinant test: use VERIFY_IS_APPROX to fix false positives; add
testing of 1 big matrix
* use _mm_malloc/_mm_free on other platforms than linux of MSVC (eg., cygwin, OSX)
* replace a lot of inline keywords by EIGEN_STRONG_INLINE to compensate for
poor MSVC inlining
Derived to MatrixBase.
* the optimization of eval() for Matrix now consists in a partial
specialization of ei_eval, which returns a reference type for Matrix.
No overriding of eval() in Matrix anymore. Consequence: careful,
ei_eval is no longer guaranteed to give a plain matrix type!
For that, use ei_plain_matrix_type, or the PlainMatrixType typedef.
* so lots of changes to adapt to that everywhere. Hope this doesn't
break (too much) MSVC compilation.
* add code examples for the new image() stuff.
* lower a bit the precision for floats in the unit tests as
we were already doing some workarounds in inverse.cpp and we got some
failed tests.
* rename Cholesky to LLT
* rename CholeskyWithoutSquareRoot to LDLT
* rename MatrixBase::cholesky() to llt()
* rename MatrixBase::choleskyNoSqrt() to ldlt()
* make {LLT,LDLT}::solve() API consistent with other modules
Note that we are going to keep a source compatibility untill the next beta release.
E.g., the "old" Cholesky* classes, etc are still available for some time.
To be clear, Eigen beta2 should be (hopefully) source compatible with beta1,
and so beta2 will contain all the deprecated API of beta1. Those features marked
as deprecated will be removed in beta3 (or in the final 2.0 if there is no beta 3 !).
Also includes various updated in sparse Cholesky.
* added a meta.cpp unit test
* EIGEN_TUNE_FOR_L2_CACHE_SIZE now represents L2 block size in Bytes (whence the ei_meta_sqrt...)
* added a CustomizeEigen.dox page
* added a TOC to QuickStartGuide.dox
* replaced the Flags template parameter of Matrix by StorageOrder
and move it back to the 4th position such that we don't have to
worry about the two Max* template parameters
* extended EIGEN_USING_MATRIX_TYPEDEFS with the ei_* math functions
asm("...") from the code while fixing MSVC compat (so your changes crossed
one another).
- move the pragma warning to CoreDeclarations, it's the right place to do early
platform checks.

* fix .normalized() so that Random().normalized() works; since the return
type became complicated to write down i just let it return an actual
vector, perhaps not optimal.
* add Sparse/CMakeLists.txt. I suppose that it was intentional that it
didn't have CMakeLists, but in <=2.0 releases I'll just manually remove
Sparse.
pivoting for better numerical stability. For now the only application is
determinant.
* New determinant unit-test.
* Disable most of Swap.h for now as it makes LU fail (mysterious).
Anyway Swap needs a big overhaul as proposed on IRC.
* Remnants of old class Inverse removed.
* Some warnings fixed.
Removed EulerAngles, addes typdefs for Quaternion and AngleAxis,
and added automatic conversions from Quaternion/AngleAxis to Matrix3 such that:
Matrix3f m = AngleAxisf(0.2,Vector3f::UnitX) * AngleAxisf(0.2,Vector3f::UnitY);
just works.
* rework PacketMath and DummyPacketMath, make these actual template
specializations instead of just overriding by non-template inline
functions
* introduce ei_ploadt and ei_pstoret, make use of them in Map and Matrix
* remove Matrix::map() methods, use Map constructors instead.
