//! SSOR / symmetric Gauss-Seidel preconditioner.
//!
//! SSOR is a *stationary* preconditioner: it asks for no factorisation and adds
//! no fill. It is built straight from `A`'s own splitting `A = D + L + U` (the
//! diagonal, strict-lower and strict-upper parts) and a relaxation factor
//! `w in (0, 2)`:
//!
//! ```text
//! M = 1 / (w (2 - w)) * (D + w L) D^{-1} (D + w U)
//! ```
//!
//! With `w = 1` this is the symmetric Gauss-Seidel (SGS) preconditioner
//! `(D + L) D^{-1} (D + U)`. Applying `M^{-1}` is one lower triangular solve,
//! a diagonal scaling, and one upper triangular solve — all against `A`'s own
//! entries, with no heap allocation.
//!
//! # When to use it
//!
//! SSOR is the natural step up from [`crate::JacobiPrecond`] when you want
//! something stronger than diagonal scaling but cheaper to build than an
//! incomplete factorisation: there is nothing to store beyond a scaled copy of
//! `A`'s triangles, and refactorisation against new values is allocation-free.
//! It is most effective on diagonally-dominant and symmetric positive-definite
//! systems, where `M` is itself SPD and pairs with conjugate gradient. A good
//! `w` is problem-dependent (often between 1.0 and 1.9); `w = 1` (SGS) is a
//! robust default.
//!
//! It is a weaker approximation than [`crate::Ic0`] / [`crate::Ilu0`] for the
//! same apply cost on most PDE operators, so reach for those when you can. SSOR
//! shines when you want a parameter-light, fill-free preconditioner or a smoother.
//!
//! # Storage
//!
//! The two factors `(D + w L)` and `(D + w U)` are stored CSC following faer's
//! triangular-solve conventions — `(D + w L)`'s diagonal *first* in each column,
//! `(D + w U)`'s diagonal *last*. The `w (2 - w)` scalar is folded into a
//! precomputed `scaled_diag` so apply needs no scratch.
