Delete arithmetic_analysis/ directory and relocate its contents (#10824)
* Remove eval from arithmetic_analysis/newton_raphson.py

* Relocate contents of arithmetic_analysis/

Delete the arithmetic_analysis/ directory and relocate its files because
the purpose of the directory was always ill-defined. "Arithmetic
analysis" isn't a field of math, and the directory's files contained
algorithms for linear algebra, numerical analysis, and physics.

Relocated the directory's linear algebra algorithms to linear_algebra/,
its numerical analysis algorithms to a new subdirectory called
maths/numerical_analysis/, and its single physics algorithm to physics/.

* updating DIRECTORY.md
