              review] major easy-to-fix but STUPID bug in gcd

Comment:

 Patch attached.  I deleted the now redundant integer parameter (which once
 was used to tell the function to use integer-specific code and is now
 redundant).  I added a relevant doctest and some more so hopefully
 William's confusion will never again occur (in someone else, I mean ;)).
 I discovered some places which still had "integer=True" in gcd calls and
 fixed those.  I tested all rings/ and used search_src() to find any other
 places where "integer=True" might have been used, and found that
 search_src("integer=True") runs for ever while producing no output.
