Storage organization of symmetric matrix

[micdestefano@…]

I noticed that, if you instantiate

symmetric_matrix<double,upper>

or

symmetric_matrix<double,upper,row_major>

the storage organization is actually column_major (and vice versa if you had specified column_major). Storage organization specification is coherent with documentation only if lower is specified. You should point out in the documentation that storage organization is referred to the lower triangle of the matrix.

(In [54232]) see #3108, fixed a simple problem in symmetric.hpp (thx Michael), the storage layout still need more investigation.

I've noticed that the storage organization implementation is coherent with the documentation in Boost 1.39.0 (I ran a test).

So, from my point of view, there's nothing to do anymore.
