Comment:

 This branch updates Denis Simon's GP scripts to versions 06/04/2011
 (`ell.gp`) resp. 13/01/2014 (`ellQ.gp`, `ellcommon.gp` [new],
 `qfsolve.gp`, `resultant3.gp`).  The scripts themselves were copied
 unchanged from Simon's website (`http://www.math.unicaen.fr/~simon/`).

 Summary of the other changes:
 - change `Qfsolve` and `Qfparam` to `qfsolve` and `qfparam`
 - remove one doctest in `gp_simon.py` that is also in
 `ell_rational_field.py`
 - remove `# random output` in `ell_number_field.py`; if necessary we can
 add `set_random_seed(0)` before that, but I got the same output every time
 - doctest fixes due to changed test output
 - minor documentation fixes

 Of course the real work in this ticket was done (indirectly) by Denis
 Simon, and I just made the necessary fixes to the Sage library, but it
 seems to me that the "Author" field is normally used for ticket authors
 rather than authors of any "upstream" code; do correct me if I'm wrong.

 Jeroen has opened #15809 for the `gp2c` conversion; hopefully John and
 Martin's hard work can somehow be transplanted there!
