* Disable test triggering ASAN failure (to pin-point where the problem is).

* Fix unsafe "block" implementation in test_eigen.cpp

* Undo changes (i.e. revert back to master).

* Detect "type_caster for Eigen::Ref made a copy."

This is achieved without
* reaching into internals,
* making test_eigen.cpp depend on pybind11/numpy.h.

* Add comment pointing to PR, for easy reference.

* Remove sanity check from code base.

* Use main over master.

* Better alternative that doesn't collide with language keywords/frequent usage words.

When converting an array to an Eigen matrix, ignore the strides if any
dimension size is 0. If the array is empty, the strides aren't relevant,
and especially numpy ≥ 1.23 explicitly sets the strides to 0 in this
case. (See numpy commit dd5ab7b11520.)

Update tests to verify that this works, and continues to work.

- UPDATEIFCOPY is deprecated, replaced with similar (but not identical)
  WRITEBACKIFCOPY; trying to access the flag causes a deprecation
  warning under numpy 1.14, so just check the new flag there.
- Numpy `repr` formatting of floats changed in 1.14.0 to `[1., 2., 3.]`
  instead of the pre-1.14 `[ 1.,  2.,  3.]`.  Updated the tests to
  check for equality with the `repr(...)` value rather than the
  hard-coded (and now version-dependent) string representation.

This fixes a bug introduced in b68959e8
when passing in a two-dimensional, but conformable, array as the value
for a compile-time Eigen vector (such as VectorXd or RowVectorXd).  The
commit switched to using numpy to copy into the eigen data, but this
broke the described case because numpy refuses to broadcast a (N,1)
into a (N).

This commit fixes it by squeezing the input array whenever the output
array is 1-dimensional, which will let the problematic case through.
(This shouldn't squeeze inappropriately as dimension compatibility is
already checked for conformability before getting to the copy code).

This udpates all the remaining tests to the new test suite code and
comment styles started in #898.  For the most part, the test coverage
here is unchanged, with a few minor exceptions as noted below.

- test_constants_and_functions: this adds more overload tests with
  overloads with different number of arguments for more comprehensive
  overload_cast testing.  The test style conversion broke the overload
  tests under MSVC 2015, prompting the additional tests while looking
  for a workaround.

- test_eigen: this dropped the unused functions `get_cm_corners` and
  `get_cm_corners_const`--these same tests were duplicates of the same
  things provided (and used) via ReturnTester methods.

- test_opaque_types: this test had a hidden dependence on ExampleMandA
  which is now fixed by using the global UserType which suffices for the
  relevant test.

- test_methods_and_attributes: this required some additions to UserType
  to make it usable as a replacement for the test's previous SimpleType:
  UserType gained a value mutator, and the `value` property is not
  mutable (it was previously readonly).  Some overload tests were also
  added to better test overload_cast (as described above).

- test_numpy_array: removed the untemplated mutate_data/mutate_data_t:
  the templated versions with an empty parameter pack expand to the same
  thing.

- test_stl: this was already mostly in the new style; this just tweaks
  things a bit, localizing a class, and adding some missing
  `// test_whatever` comments.

- test_virtual_functions: like `test_stl`, this was mostly in the new
  test style already, but needed some `// test_whatever` comments.
  This commit also moves the inherited virtual example code to the end
  of the file, after the main set of tests (since it is less important
  than the other tests, and rather length); it also got renamed to
  `test_inherited_virtuals` (from `test_inheriting_repeat`) because it
  tests both inherited virtual approaches, not just the repeat approach.

Put the caster's temporary array on life support to ensure correct
lifetime when it's being used as a subcaster.

Missing conformability check was causing Eigen to create a 0x0 matrix
with an error in debug mode and silent corruption in release mode.

`EigenConformable::stride_compatible` returns false if the strides are
negative. In this case, do not use `EigenConformable::stride`, as it
is {0,0}. We cannot write negative strides in this element, as Eigen
will throw an assertion if we do.

The `type_caster` specialization for regular, dense Eigen matrices now
does a second `array_t::ensure` to copy data in case of negative strides.
I'm not sure that this is the best way to implement this.

I have added "TODO" tags linking these changes to Eigen bug #747, which,
when fixed, will allow Eigen to accept negative strides.

Many of the Eigen type casters' name() methods weren't wrapping the type
description in a `type_descr` object, which thus wasn't adding the
"{...}" annotation used to identify an argument which broke the help
output by skipping eigen arguments.

The test code I had added even had some (unnoticed) broken output (with
the "arg0: " showing up in the return value).

This commit also adds test code to ensure that named eigen arguments
actually work properly, despite the invalid help output.  (The added
tests pass without the rest of this commit).

Fixes #754.

Fixes #738

The current check for conformability fails when given a 2D, 1xN or Nx1
input to a row-major or column-major, respectively, Eigen::Ref, leading
to a copy-required state in the type_caster, but this later failed
because the copy was also non-conformable because it had the same shape
and strides (because a 1xN or Nx1 is both F and C contiguous).

In such cases we can safely ignore the stride on the "1" dimension since
it'll never be used: only the "N" dimension stride needs to match the
Eigen::Ref stride, which both fixes the non-conformable copy problem,
but also avoids a copy entirely as long as the "N" dimension has a
compatible stride.

test_eigen.py and test_numpy_*.py have the same
@pytest.requires_eigen_and_numpy or @pytest.requires_numpy on every
single test; this changes them to use pytest's global `pytestmark = ...`
instead to disable the entire module when numpy and/or eigen aren't
available.

This commit largely rewrites the Eigen dense matrix support to avoid
copying in many cases: Eigen arguments can now reference numpy data, and
numpy objects can now reference Eigen data (given compatible types).

Eigen::Ref<...> arguments now also make use of the new `convert`
argument use (added in PR #634) to avoid conversion, allowing
`py::arg().noconvert()` to be used when binding a function to prohibit
copying when invoking the function.  Respecting `convert` also means
Eigen overloads that avoid copying will be preferred during overload
resolution to ones that require copying.

This commit also rewrites the Eigen documentation and test suite to
explain and test the new capabilities.

Currently when we do a conversion between a numpy array and an Eigen
Vector, we allow the conversion only if the Eigen type is a
compile-time vector (i.e. at least one dimension is fixed at 1 at
compile time), or if the type is dynamic on *both* dimensions.

This means we can run into cases where MatrixXd allow things that
conforming, compile-time sizes does not: for example,
`Matrix<double,4,Dynamic>` is currently not allowed, even when assigning
from a 4-element vector, but it *is* allowed for a
`Matrix<double,Dynamic,Dynamic>`.

This commit also reverts the current behaviour of using the matrix's
storage order to determine the structure when the Matrix is fully
dynamic (i.e. in both dimensions).  Currently we assign to an eigen row
if the storage order is row-major, and column otherwise: this seems
wrong (the storage order has nothing to do with the shape!).  While
numpy doesn't distinguish between a row/column vector, Eigen does, but
it makes more sense to consistently choose one than to produce
something with a different shape based on the intended storage layout.

Fixes #357.

Use simple asserts and pytest's powerful introspection to make testing
simpler. This merges the old .py/.ref file pairs into simple .py files
where the expected values are right next to the code being tested.

This commit does not touch the C++ part of the code and replicates the
Python tests exactly like the old .ref-file-based approach.
