Test with Ref<SparseMatrix/SparseVector>

Hi,

In the Eigen 3.3-alpha1 pre-release, I noticed that support for Ref<SparseMatrix> was added (which is greatly appreciated!). While doing a quick check to see if one of our projects, RobOptim (http://www.roboptim.net/), was working with the changes made to Eigen (we rely heavily on Eigen features such as Ref, sparse matrices/vectors etc.), I realized that Ref<SparseVector> is currently not possible. Is that a known issue/missing feature part of a to-do list? It may be worth adding to the changelog, since people may wrongly assume that Ref<SparseMatrix> support implies Ref<SparseVector> support.

Nonetheless, thanks for the great work on that new release!

Best regards,
Benjamin
