/**
 * @brief MADlib mutable matrix class -- a thin wrapper around arma::Col or
 *        arma::Row
 *
 * Armadillo does not provide a public interface to rebind the chunk of memory 
 * an arma::Mat<eT> object is using. We therefore need this subclass to 
 * make matrix objects first-class citizen in the C++ DBAL.
 *
 * @internal Inheritance is not without issues here, and in a future version
 *     we might want to switch to composition instead of inheritance (in order
 *     to make it less likely that changes in the superclass break our
 *     implementation).
