# Promotion
## Promotion methods in matmul don't apply to triangular multiplication since
## it is inplace. Hence we have to make very similar definitions, but without
## allocation of a result array. For multiplication and unit diagonal division
## the element type doesn't have to be stable under division whereas that is
## necessary in the general triangular solve problem.

## Some Triangular-Triangular cases. We might want to write tailored methods
## for these cases, but I'm not sure it is worth it.
