/* Optimized col-major matrix * vector product:
 * This algorithm processes 4 columns at onces that allows to both reduce
 * the number of load/stores of the result by a factor 4 and to reduce
 * the instruction dependency. Moreover, we know that all bands have the
 * same alignment pattern.
 *
 * Mixing type logic: C += alpha * A * B
 *  |  A  |  B  |alpha| comments
 *  |real |cplx |cplx | no vectorization
 *  |real |cplx |real | alpha is converted to a cplx when calling the run function, no vectorization
 *  |cplx |real |cplx | invalid, the caller has to do tmp: = A * B; C += alpha*tmp
 *  |cplx |real |real | optimal case, vectorization possible via real-cplx mul
 *
 * Accesses to the matrix coefficients follow the following logic:
 *
 * - if all columns have the same alignment then
 *   - if the columns have the same alignment as the result vector, then easy! (-> AllAligned case)
 *   - otherwise perform unaligned loads only (-> NoneAligned case)
 * - otherwise
 *   - if even columns have the same alignment then
 *     // odd columns are guaranteed to have the same alignment too
 *     - if even or odd columns have the same alignment as the result, then
 *       // for a register size of 2 scalars, this is guarantee to be the case (e.g., SSE with double)
 *       - perform half aligned and half unaligned loads (-> EvenAligned case)
 *     - otherwise perform unaligned loads only (-> NoneAligned case)
 *   - otherwise, if the register size is 4 scalars (e.g., SSE with float) then
 *     - one over 4 consecutive columns is guaranteed to be aligned with the result vector,
 *       perform simple aligned loads for this column and aligned loads plus re-alignment for the other. (-> FirstAligned case)
 *       // this re-alignment is done by the palign function implemented for SSE in Eigen/src/Core/arch/SSE/PacketMath.h
 *   - otherwise,
 *     // if we get here, this means the register size is greater than 4 (e.g., AVX with floats),
 *     // we currently fall back to the NoneAligned case
 *
 * The same reasoning apply for the transposed case.
 *
 * The last case (PacketSize>4) could probably be improved by generalizing the FirstAligned case, but since we do not support AVX yet...
 * One might also wonder why in the EvenAligned case we perform unaligned loads instead of using the aligned-loads plus re-alignment
 * strategy as in the FirstAligned case. The reason is that we observed that unaligned loads on a 8 byte boundary are not too slow
 * compared to unaligned loads on a 4 byte boundary.
 *
