Research direction

Start with the matlabengine installation entry point and the linked full console log, reproducing the setup in an Ubuntu 20.04.5 Docker container with MATLAB R2021b and the stated LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Done means the installation recognizes MATLAB R2021b as compatible instead of reporting that no compatible version was found.
