Description
Currently, NumpyMatrixOperator supports NumPy arrays and SciPy sparse matrices. It would be good to also add support for pydata/sparse arrays, as SciPy did in version 1.4.0.

Research direction
Start by locating the NumpyMatrixOperator implementation and reviewing how it handles NumPy arrays and SciPy sparse matrices. Investigate pydata/sparse array compatibility and existing related tests; done means the operator accepts these arrays without breaking current supported inputs.
