 As reported by Jon on sage-devel [1], the current implementation of
 is_chordal is incorrect. Given a vertex v adjacent to x and y (x and y
 being non-adjacent), a shortest path between x and y in G-v does not
 necessarily avoid the neighbors of v. Clearly.
 Well, with this patch the shortest path is computed in the graph G with v
 and all its neighbors removed with the exception of x and y, so that it
 can not happen again.

 Besides, as it is almost free to check that the certificate is indeed a
 hole, this patch adds a test just in case `:-)`
