Computes the interior product of a vector with the IPInnerProductFunctional's underlying bilinear form.

If \(Q(x, y)\) is a bilinear form, and \(a\) is a vector, then the interior product of \(a\) with \(Q\) is the functional

\[ I(z) = Q(a, z). \]

Such a functional is always linear and hence can be represented by taking the standard dot product with some vector \(y\):

\[ I(z) = y^T z. \]

This method returns the vector \(y\).
