 The Chow form associated to a projective variety is a homogeneous equation
 in Plucker coordinates associated to the variety. It describes the variety
 as a hypersurface in a Grassmannian.  It was introduced by Cayley and
 generalized by Chow and van der Warden.

 This ticket has two tasks

 - Given a projective subscheme, compute the associated Chow form

 - Given a Chow form, compute the associated variety.

 Chow form to variety: equations describing the variety set-theoretically
 can be found, but they only describe the variety scheme-theoretically if
 it is smooth or is a hypersurface.
