New description:
In the catch-all `structure/parent.pyx:Parent.__contains__` we depend on a
bug to get the right result for, e.g. `sqrt(3) in RR/CC` despite
`bool(RR/CC(sqrt(3))==sqrt(3))` being `False`(See comment 28 of #12967).
In order to fix the bug fix (in a separate ticket) dedicated
`__contains__` methods for both rings are needed.
Moreover, until now Maxima is used for this which is slow and completely
unnecessary.
