This implements one of the possible improvements suggested in #53. However, I don't see any actual improvement in memory allocations compared to what was reported there:
Nevertheless, I think that having the states represented with multi-dimensional arrays simplifies the code in many places as it allows us to avoid doing complex index arithmetic, we don't need
dim_grid
anddim_state
at all, and we don't need to flatten arrays in a few places.
