ENH: add `mdot`: fast dot with multiple arguments.

This is not ready to be merged!

`mdot` makes it easy to chain `dot`. Think of `mdot` as this:

    def mdot(*args): return reduce(np.dot, args)

However, `mdot` uses the fact that matrix multiplication is associative and
finds the optimal order of multiplications with dynamic programing before
doing the mutiplication. This can speed up the multiplication quite a bit.

The algorithm follows:
Cormen, "Introduction to Algorithms", Chapter 15.2, p. 370-378

Note: currently `mdot` only works with arrays which have `ndim == 2` to avoid
ambiguities of `dot`. Also see the discussion in #4311.

TODO:
- [ ] Decide if `ndim != 2` should be ok
- [ ] Add unittests
- [ ] Do we need more documentation?
I feel the same! It's a nuisance to pass arguments as list or tuple but not being able to explicitly list keyword arguments is annoying.

I didn't find any rules for numpy regarding this. If there are no clear rules or objections I'll change `mdot` to accept a list of arguments plus the named argument `optimize`. This also solves the issue you mentioned in the previous comment.
