#13592: padics should not be iterable

---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Currently, one can iterate over a padic element. So the following code
runs forever:
{{{
sage: for c in Qp(3).zero():
... pass
}}}
This causes some trouble, see #13302 and I think that padics should not
return iterators at all.
What should the iterator for Qp(3).zero() be — should it be infinite or
empty? Should the iterator for Zp(3)(3) and Qp(3)(3) iterate over [0,1] or
over [1]?
I believe that if one wants to iterate over the terms, then one should
have to call .list() or similar explicitly.
