The clever scalar version of the KPM iteration inherited from Elsa was broken. Since Julia 1.3 we have 5-argument
mul!
that implements a similar scalar algorithm. It is also multithreaded to boot. This PR uses such facility, and fixes KPM in the process (I used the computation in https://discourse.julialang.org/t/kernel-polynomial-method/34240/3 as reference). A side effect is that the code is again much clearer and closer to the original algorithm.
