------------------------------+---------------------------------
 This patch will implement two improvements to the k-Schur functions at
 t=1.  The first is a change to `_to_schur_on_basis` and the second is a
 change to how the product is calculated.  Both will improve the algorithm
 for doing these calculations by factoring out k-rectangles which are known
 to multiply by the rule `s_R*s^{(k)}_\lambda = s^{(k)}_{\lambda\cup R}`.
 Currently `_to_schur_on_basis` is computed by determining the tableau in
 the k-atom of a given shape.  Factoring out maximal rectangles seems to
 reduce the computation by orders of magnitude for large examples.

 Before:
 {{{
 sage: Sym = SymmetricFunctions(QQ); ks3 = Sym.kschur(3,1); s = Sym.s()
 sage: timeit("s(ks3([3,3,3,2,2,1,1,1]))", number = 1, repeat = 1)
 1 loops, best of 1: 7.43 s per loop
 }}}

 After:
 {{{
 sage: Sym = SymmetricFunctions(QQ); ks3 = Sym.kschur(3,1); s = Sym.s()
 sage: timeit("s(ks3([3,3,3,2,2,1,1,1]))", number = 1, repeat = 1)
 1 loops, best of 1: 55.5 ms per loop
 }}}
