Comment (by zimmerma):
> How about letting `_parse_output()` always sort the list of pairs
`(factor, probable_prime)` before returning it, regardless of the number
of factors and the value of `probable_prime` for each?
but then we would lose some information, since the first factor is the one
which is really found by ECM.
And with 3 prime factors or more, we would still have non-deterministic
output.
