Overview
This PR adds comprehensive documentation for the Hadamard product feature implemented in PR #37, which enables element-wise matrix multiplication for matrices with different memory layouts.
What's Documented
Added a new "Hadamard Product (Element-wise Multiplication)" section to
site/docs/matrix.mdthat covers:Basic Usage
Shows simple element-wise multiplication of two matrices:
Advanced Scenarios
Non-contiguous Views: Demonstrates Hadamard product on sliced matrix views, which previously would throw
NotImplementedError:Mixed Layouts: Shows operations between matrices with different layouts (one simple, one sliced)
Transposed Matrices: Demonstrates Hadamard product with row-major (transposed) matrices
Performance Insights
Documents the optimization strategies:
Changes Made

PR #37 removed a significant limitation where the Hadamard product would fail with
NotImplementedErrorfor non-simple matrix layouts. This documentation helps users understand:This aligns with vecxt's goal of providing "reasonable, consistent cross platform ergonomics" while maintaining correctness as the #1 priority.
