Although the Javadoc fixes in MATH-193 make the text agree with the
parameter names, I think that's not the best solution.

Short parameter names like "d" are easy to type in code, but they
don't work well for IDEs that provide completion hints, e.g. when
calling the methods from other code. For example, rather than:

public RealMatrixImpl(double[][] d)

it would be clearer to use something more descriptive, e.g.:

public RealMatrixImpl(double[][] sourcedata)

I would suggest deferring the changes.
