#5231: [with patch, needs review] make relative number fields lazy

     Type:  enhancement    |      Status:  new                             
 Priority:  major          |   Milestone:  sage-3.4                        
Component:  number theory  |    Keywords:  relative number fields lazy pari
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 The attached patch makes relative number fields truly lazy, meaning that
 they don't require PARI's nf or bnf structures for the base field nor
 PARI's rnf structures for the extension.  This means that arithmetic can
 be done in huge extensions, ones for which there is no hope of finding
 units, class groups, etc.

 Along the way I cleaned some conversions to PARI and fixed a bug
 relativizing absolute fields over QQ.  I also added many doctests.  I also
 tested this with #4779's randomized testing; passed with flying colors.

 This patch cannot be allowed to bitrot, it's just to much work to
 understand this part of the code.
