Lifting upper-triangular invertible matrices #

Upper-triangular invertible matrices lift along surjective ring homomorphisms that reflect units. This is the diagonal-block lifting step for flag stabilizers: lift only the entries on and above the diagonal, then reflect invertibility of the determinant along the ring homomorphism.

The entrywise construction follows Matrix.SpecialLinearGroup.exists_isUpperTriangular_map_eq in TauCeti.LinearAlgebra.Matrix.SpecialLinearGroup.Lift.

A surjective ring homomorphism that reflects units induces a surjection on the upper-triangular general linear subgroup, including for an empty index type.
