#12532: plot3d transformations should take symbolic vectors

This works:
{{{
var('r,theta,z,rho,phi')
cylindrical=[r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta), z]
plot3d(3,(theta,0,pi/2),(z,0,pi/2),transformation=cylindrical)
}}}
but this doesn't (but should work)
{{{
cylindrical(r,theta,z)=[r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta), z]
plot3d(3,(theta,0,pi/2),(z,0,pi/2),transformation=cylindrical)
}}}
The problem is we pay too much attention to the type passed into the
transformation argument. We should also allow symbolic vectors, as well
as lists and tuples.
