Comment (by jdemeyer):
Since the primitive root of unity is computed using PARI in both cases
(either as part of full unit group or using `nfrootsof1`), wouldn't the
problem be solved by simply returning whatever is answered by PARI? That
is, don't try to find the generator with shortest string representation.
