Summary: matrix ^ zero

Initial Comment:
We have 

  (%i1) matrix([0])^0;
  (%o1) matrix([1])

but

  (%i2) 0^0;
  0^0 has been generated -- an error. 

Similarly, [0]^0 --> [1].

(%o1) disagrees with the user documentation for
domxexpt. I think the code should be changed to
match the documentation --- the matrix ^ xxx code
in simpexpt should be changed to simply map the
power function onto the matrix elements.
