Create a matrix of odd dimensions that has ones on both diagonals and dividing the matrix into 4 quadrants, resembling a square union jack flag. For example, if n=11:

1  0  0  0  0  1  0  0  0  0  1
0  1  0  0  0  1  0  0  0  1  0
0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0
0  0  0  1  0  1  0  1  0  0  0
0  0  0  0  1  1  1  0  0  0  0
1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1  1
0  0  0  0  1  1  1  0  0  0  0
0  0  0  1  0  1  0  1  0  0  0
0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0
0  1  0  0  0  1  0  0  0  1  0
1  0  0  0  0  1  0  0  0  0  1
