 If `K` is a number field with a given embedding, then `K.subfield(gen)`
 should inherit that embedding but it does not::
 {{{
 sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2-5, embedding=2)
 sage: L, phi = K.subfield(-a)
 sage: K.specified_complex_embedding()
 Generic morphism:
   From: Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 - 5
   To:   Real Lazy Field
   Defn: a -> 2.236067977499790?
 sage: L.specified_complex_embedding()
 }}}

 Also, if `K` has no given embedding, then `L` could at least store an
 embedding in `K`.
