[petsc-dev] Code for MAGMA solver

[Jed Brown]

Thanks!  As Matt says, some people here prefer pull requests.  If you
prefer to email patches, please use "git send-email" so that they form a
chain of emails rather than a single email with lots of attachments.

This is just the Python file so the commit message above should not
claim other capability.  Either update the commit message to say that it
provides --download-magma or fold it into the other patch.

I'm not wild about inserting this into the dense.c.  Could you make a
sub-directory and put the MAGMA stuff in
src/mat/impls/dense/seq/magma/seqmagma.c?  Then mark the enclosing
makefile with #requirespackage 'PETSC_HAVE_MAGMA'.

Please commit this just like any other test and add your test runs to
the makefile and expected output in output/ex123.out.  Your first commit
(adding magma.py) can also add a testexamples_MAGMA stub to conf/test.
