---------------------------+----------------------------------
 These days, Cython knows that included files are a dependency. So in most
 cases, the `depends = [...]` lines in `module_list.py` are not needed.

 This ticket removes `flint_depends`, `singular_depends` and
 `givaro_depends` with one exception: the dependency of
 `sage.libs.linbox.linbox` on Givaro is not automatically detected (I don't
 know whether it's a real dependency, but I'm keeping the explicit
 dependency to be safe).

 To check that Cython really knows the dependencies, you can check the
 metadata on top of each generated `.c`/`.cpp` file. You will see that
 (with the one exception mentioned before), Cython knows the dependencies.

 Note that in some cases, `flint/flint.h` was a dependency before but not
 after this ticket. In all those cases, other FLINT files like
 `flint/ulong_extras.h` are still a dependency, so this is not a problem.
