Elementwise IEEE 754 maximum, NaN-IGNORING: where one operand is NaN the other value wins (both NaN gives NaN). For the NaN-propagating law use [`ops::maximum`](./maximum.md#maximum). Broadcasts and promotes as [`add`](./add.md#add).

**Returns:** the broadcast-shaped maxima.

**Throws**

- `ClikaRT::Error`: (`INVALID_ARGUMENT`) when the operand shapes are not broadcast-compatible.
