Big reworking of ColPivQR and its unit test, which now passes even with thousands of repetitions and correctly tests matrices of all sizes. Several surprises along the way: for example, a major cause of trouble was the optimized "table of column squared norms" where the accumulation of imprecision was a serious issue; another surprise is that tests like "x!=0" before dividing by x really benefit from being replaced by fuzzy tests, as i hit real cases where i got wrong results in 1/epsilon.
