// This is a rudimentary implementation. It could be improved by noting
// that adj(A B) = adj(B) adj(A) for all matrices A, B (invertible or
// not) and then using a matrix decomposition for larger matrices.
//
// E.g. using a singular value decomposition A = U D V^* gives
// adj(A) = V adj(D) U^*.
//
// On the other hand, SVD decomposition makes no sense for e.g. integer matrices
// and we want to keep T as general as possible.
