Avoid StackOverflowError of generic `norm` on `AbstractChar`

5

Addresses #52302 (_StackOverflowError when using LinearAlgebra norm on "wrong" datatypes_) in the specific sense of intercepting `AbstractChar` when generically calling `norm` before the recursive loop starts.

Implement `findmin`, `findmax`, `argmin`, `argmax`

Upstream BLIS patches for ARM SVE?

5

We have a multi-platform, cross-compiling build system for binaries in the Julia ecosystem ( [BinaryBuilder.jl](https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/BinaryBuilder.jl) ), with the [Yggdrasil](https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil) repo hosting the recipes. While the latest recipe for the shiny...

I've been working on "porting" the Windows specific logic in the build scripts from BLIS to the `configure` and `Makefile` to their equivalent in libflame (diffs are here: https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/8671/files) It's...

Enable "WIP: Wrap BLIS" with reference LAPACK
