Determinant of elementary row and column operations.
Building on the permutation-vector structure in HexDeterminant.Permutation,
this module reindexes the Leibniz sum to read off the determinant's reaction to
the elementary operations: det_identity, det_rowSwap, det_rowScale,
det_rowAdd, det_transpose, cofactor_transpose, and the column analogues
det_colPermute_vector, det_colSwap, det_colAdd.
The determinant of the identity matrix is one.
The determinant is invariant under matrix transpose.
Permuting columns multiplies the determinant by the sign of the column permutation.
Swapping two distinct columns negates the determinant. The column mirror of
det_rowSwap, proved by transposing to the row law.
Scaling a column by c scales the determinant by c. The column mirror of
det_rowScale.
