// MulParams describes all about a matrix multiplication that
// isn't encoded in the LHS, RHS and destination matrices. Some of that
// information is encoded as compile-time constants and types (for instance, the
// choice of accumulator type, AccumScalar). Some of that information is encoded
// as runtime values (for instance, the optional bias vector).
//
// Template parameters:
// AccumScalar: Accumulator type. The type of accumulators used to compute the
// dot-products before being ultimately casted to the destination type.
// DstScalar: The destination scalar type.
//
// Constraints on these template parameters (see also the ruy::Mul comment):
// * If DstScalar is floating-point then AccumScalar must also be.
// * If DstScalar is integral then AccumScalar must be std::int32_t. Moreover
//   in that integral case, there is a mode switch:
//   - If DstScalar is std::int32_t then the multiplier_* fields are all
//     disabled, and ruy::Mul will just return raw (unscaled) accumulators.
//   - If DstScalar is not std::int32_t then the multiplier_* fields are
//     enabled, and ruy::Mul will use them to scale internal std::int32_t
//     accumulators before casting them to the DstScalar type. The default
//     values are such that the effective multiplier is 1 (no scaling).
//
// For the latter case (DstScalar integral and narrower than std::int32_t),
// reference code can be found in the implementation of ruy::ApplyMultiplier.
// If you look there, you'll find warnings like this:
//
//   !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
//   Warning: this code is not meant to be bit-exact-normative.
//   Please refer to the class comment of ruy::MulParams, in mul_params.h.
//   !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
//
// The explanation of this warning is that as of early 2021, we still don't know
// whether it is advisable to let this code as-is have normative value, or
// whether that would become advisable after some specific final change.
//
// Ruy's CPU backends (x86 and ARM) as of early 2021 happen to conform
// bit-exactly to this reference, but we also know that x86 could be faster if
// it didn't, and so could NEON-less ARM (such as Cortex-M) (see [2]). We don't
// know that this particular reference code is inherently better than other
// forms that could perform better on these architectures --- in fact, the
// alternative that was proposed in [2] as better performing on ARM Cortex-M
// is also inherently more accurate thanks to rounding only once, but it would
// perform worse on both ARM NEON, and x86.
//
// In fact, if we look at other hardware architectures beyond current Ruy
// targets, namely "hardware accelerators", it becomes clear that there is no
// hope for any form of this to be efficiently implementable simultaneously on
// all current relevant hardware. Indeed, some accelerators prefer to perform
// the multiplication in IEEE float32, others in IEEE float16, others in
// bfloat16, others in 16-bit fixed-point...
