Improve `transpose`, `adjoint` of vector `StridedView`

[mtfishman]

Hi @Jutho, this makes it so that transpose and adjoint of vector StridedView remains a StridedView.

I did this by generalizing transpose and adjoint to support both matrix and vector StridedView by calling permutedims(::StridedView), and then making sure that works for vector StridedView by calling sreshape (so this PR also fixes permutedims(::StridedView) for vector StridedView as well). Open to other approaches.

I am a bit hesitant about this. This means that transpose(v) * v no longer yields a number, which was the whole point why the Transpose objects were created in Julia Base. While the transpose behaviour is not officially specified in the AbstractArray interface, I do feel like this constitutes a violation of the AbstractArray interface that I would prefer to avoid.

[mtfishman]

Oh good point, I hadn't considered that usage of transpose/adjoint.

[Jutho]

I think adding these lines below line 172 would also resolve your issue:

function sreshape(a::LinearAlgebra.AdjointAbsVec, newsize::Dims)
    return sreshape(conj(StridedView(adjoint(a))), newsize)
end
function sreshape(a::LinearAlgebra.TransposeAbsVec, newsize::Dims)
    return sreshape(StridedView(transpose(a)), newsize)
end

From CI, it seems like I will also have to check what is going on with Aqua.jl ?

[mtfishman]

That looks like a good fix, thanks. I can update this PR with that fix and look into the Aqua issue.

[Jutho]

That would be great, it's getting a bit late here to focus and do stuff properly. Feel free to bump the patch version while you are at it, then I can merge tomorrow morning if all lights turn green and immediately register the new version.

[mtfishman]

Ok, I changed it over to your fix, updated the tests, and updated to the latest Aqua syntax (I just removed the project_toml_formatting keyword argument since it was removed in https://github.com/JuliaTesting/Aqua.jl/pull/209).

Looks like the CI needs your approval to run.
