Note that the unitary test in lyapunov_solver.m that checks sparse matrix input
had to be removed. Previously, this test was passing by chance (because the
sparse test matrices had actually no zero element, hence the internal double
float storage was the same as in the dense case). Now it consistently fails
with the additional checks in disclyap_fast MEX.
Because at some point throwing exceptions from MEX files (with mexErrMsgTxt())
was not working under Windows 64-bit, we had designed a workaround to avoid
using exceptions.
Most MEX files were returning an error code as their first (or sometimes last)
argument, and that code would have to be checked from the MATLAB code.
Since this workaround is no longer needed, this commit removes it. As a
consequence, the interface of many MEX files is modified.
