New description:

 With maxima-as-an-ecl-library and ecl accessible as a library, we can
 start interfacing with maxima via a binary library interface. This should
 be more efficient and more robust, because expressions can be transmitted
 in a much richer format than text and parsing does not have to recognise
 error messages and questions (since communication does not go via
 STDIN/STDOUT anymore)

 ----
 Status: All doctest failures (8 in total across 4 files) are due to the
 fact that Maxima asking a question now triggers a different error.

 ----
 Applies cleanly to 4.6.2.

 This ticket is dependent on #10766, #10773, #10743. Ticket #10818 is
 desirable but not essential. Apply:
