 This is a basic implementation of Harley's point counting algorithm in
 characteristic 2 as presented in Vercauteren thesis (so with what is
 called there Norm Computation I).

 It uses Sage's interface to Pari library for computations in Z_q.

 It is absolutely not optimized.

 A simple optimization would be to cythonize it and use direct calls to
 Pari or NTL/GF2X libraries.

 It is faster than the basic FGH algo implementation of ticket #11448 :

 {{{
 sage: from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.fgh_algo import
 compute_trace_char2
 sage: from sage.schemes.elliptic_curves.harley_algo import harley_2
 sage: K = GF(1<<160,'t')
 sage: a = K.random_element(); time print harley_2(a); time print
 compute_trace_char2(a);
