Plan: switch coloring code to compiled SMC binary #147

Description

@adrhill

SparseMatrixColorings.jl is the highly performant SOTA code for matrix coloring. However, since it is written in Julia, it currently requires being called through Python's juliacall package. This is the approach currently taken by pysparsematrixcolorings.

Potential users have expressed an aversion to adding a Julia runtime to their dependencies here, and asdex doesn't plan on taking this approach.

If pySMC used Julia's recent package compilation features and bundled the resulting SMC binaries, asdex would use it as a dependency for matrix coloring.
