Summary description: Improve the typesetting of mathematical matrices with TikZ
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
New command OnlyMainNiceMatrix; this command may be useful when
using
ewcolumntype to create new types of columns for vertical
rules in the array.
New command NiceMatrixLastEnv: gives the value of the number of
the last environment of nicematrix. This command may be useful
when creating environments upon the environments of nicematrix.
New options 'create-medium-nodes' and 'create-large-nodes' to
create only the 'medium nodes' or only the 'large nodes'.
Previously, there was only the option 'create-extra-nodes'.
The new code is faster in several circumstances.
