Comment (by jdemeyer):

 `mpmath` is slower than `_cheb_recur_()`, so I think `mpmath` should be
 only used in cases where the index is not an integer.

 Perhaps the `_eval_` logic should be
  1. `n` in `ZZ` => use recursion. If `x` is symbolic and `abs(n) <= 50`,
 `expand()` the result
  2. `n` or `x` symbolic => use symbolic evaluation
  3. `n` and `x` real/complex => use `mpmath`
  4. anything else => `raise ValueError`
