Description changed by jdemeyer:
Old description:
> Add an argument `modulus="primitive"` to the finite field generator
> `GF()` such that the chosen generator is guaranteed to be a generator of
> the multiplicative group.
>
> Also add an argument `modulus="pari"` (and make it the default) to use
> PARI's `ffinit()`.
New description:
Add an argument `modulus="primitive"` to the finite field generator `GF()`
such that the chosen generator is guaranteed to be a generator of the
multiplicative group.
