----------------------+------------------------------------------
Marking a function/method/constructor as `@experimental` causes the
experimental warning message to be issued every time. This seems to be due
to a general convention in Sage that warnings are issued repeatedly.
That convention leaves `@experimental` virtually useless, however, since
the user is clearly aware of the experimental nature of the code after the
first issuing of the warning, but nonetheless chooses to keep on using it.
This patch makes sure that the `@experimental` warnings are issued only
once (without changing behaviour for other warnings)
