Comment (by tscrim):

 I'd implement all 3 with an optional `algorithm` argument since each has
 different strengths/weaknesses. For example, 2 is good as long as the
 polynomials are relatively dense, but for something like `x^100000 - 2`, I
 wouldn't want to convert that to a dense polynomial because of the memory
 usage (and take the time to construct it). From that, I think 3 should be
 the default. Possible names:

 1. `"fraction_field"`
 2. `"dense"`
 3. `"pseudo-division"`

 Nevertheless, I think we should have some `gcd` since this would be a
 surprise for the more casual user.
