#9745: Pickling of FFELT (finite field element) PARI/GP elements broken

------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 The new version of PARI (see #9343) introduces a new type t_FFELT (finite
 field element).  Unfortunately, they pickle badly in Sage:

 {{{
 sage: gp_el = gp('ffgen(ffinit(2,3))')
 sage: gp_el.type()
 t_FFELT
 sage: loads(dumps(gp_el)).type()
 t_POL
 }}}

 A possible solution would be to implement pickling using PARI's
 {{{writebin()}}} and {{{read()}}}.
