Fix tr for Symmetric/Hermitian block matrices (#55522)
Since `Symmetric` and `Hermitian` symmetrize the diagonal elements of the parent, we can't forward `tr` to the parent unless it is already symmetric. This limits the existing `tr` methods to matrices of `Number`s, which is the common use-case. `tr` for `Symmetric` block matrices would now use the fallback implementation that explicitly computes the `diag`. This resolves the following discrepancy: ```julia julia> S = Symmetric(fill([1 2; 3 4], 3, 3)) 3×3 Symmetric{AbstractMatrix, Matrix{Matrix{Int64}}}: [1 2; 2 4] [1 2; 3 4] [1 2; 3 4] [1 3; 2 4] [1 2; 2 4] [1 2; 3 4] [1 3; 2 4] [1 3; 2 4] [1 2; 2 4] julia> tr(S) 2×2 Matrix{Int64}: 3 6 9 12 julia> sum(diag(S)) 2×2 Symmetric{Int64, Matrix{Int64}}: 3 6 6 12 ```
