`view(::MatElem, ::Int, ::Int)` errors
This doesn't work:
julia> M = matrix(ZZ, [ 1 2 3 ; 4 5 6])
[1 2 3]
[4 5 6]
julia> view(M, 1, 1)
ERROR: StackOverflowError:
Stacktrace:
[1] view(M::AbstractAlgebra.Generic.MatSpaceElem{BigInt}, rows::Int64, cols::Int64) (repeats 79984 times)
@ AbstractAlgebra ~/.julia/dev/AbstractAlgebra/src/Matrix.jl:432
With Julia matrices it does:
julia> view(M.entries, 1, 1)
0-dimensional view(::Matrix{BigInt}, 1, 1) with eltype BigInt:
1
I guess we would have to add a type MatSpaceScalarView
(?) to the view
interface? Also this particular view
function https://github.com/Nemocas/AbstractAlgebra.jl/blob/6b230ed767387281b56af7583a62a092bd39136c/src/Matrix.jl#L429 seems very fishy to me.
