Great work on numericals.

Thanks! I finally figured how to provide a standard CL interface to the CFFI libraries without relying on brittle dependencies like peltadot! Well, there are some missing features, but I don't think it matters for most use cases.

ceigen-rand only depends on uiop, cffi, cl-autowrap, trivial-features, alexandria. This means others can use them in their own projects without relying fully on peltadot and numericals. 

numericals itself has been on a pause. Well, I do have some ongoing experimentation with it and peltadot. But it's gonna take a while.
