New description:

 The permutation group method to_presentation wraps the GAP function
 IsomorphismFpGroupByGenerators which yields an isomorphism from a given
 group to an isomorphic finite presentation. to_presentation takes the
 image of the isomorphism returned by this function and wraps it as a Sage
 finitely presented group.

 {{{
 sage: G = DihedralGroup(8); G
 Dihedral group of order 16 as a permutation group
 sage: G.to_presentation()
 Finitely presented group < a, b | b^2, b*a^-1*b*a^-1, a^8 >
 }}}
 Depends on #14790 which gives the python generator object needed for
 variable names.

 __Apply__
