New description:

 This ticket refactors the code of WeylCharacterRing and WeightRing to use
 categories and (combinatorial) free modules. Along the way, it adds a
 couple features (Dan: please list them here), and solves a pickling issue
 which was caught by #7921:

 {{{
 sage: A2 = WeylCharacterRing(['A',2])
 sage: a2 = WeightRing(A2)
 sage: TestSuite(a2).run()
 Failure in _test_element_pickling:
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 AssertionError: 2*a2(0,0,0) != 2*a2(0,0,0)
 }}}

 Indeed:
 {{{
 sage: x = a2.an_element()
 sage: x == loads(dumps(x))
 False
 }}}


 '''Apply''' [attachment: trac_7922-rebased-4.7.alpha3.patch]

 '''Remove''' the following pickles from the pickle jar:

 {{{
 _class__sage_combinat_root_system_weyl_characters_WeightRing__.*
 _class__sage_combinat_root_system_weyl_characters_WeylCharacterRing_class__.*
 _class__sage_combinat_root_system_weyl_characters_WeylCharacter__.*
 }}}

 '''Copy''' the contents of
 [attachment: trac_7922-new_pickles.tar.gz] into
 {{{data/ext_code/pickle_jar}}}.
