 Ultimately, we should provide the user a nice way to set this. In the
 meantime, I'd like to clean up a few places where we play fast and loose
 with it:

 * `simplify_radical()` and `simplify_log()` set the domain to 'real'
 before the round trip through Maxima and back. This has no effect on any
 doctest (radcan ignores `domain` anyway).

 * Expression.expand_log() sets the domain to 'real' when it's called, and
 'complex' when it returns. We should make a note of the previous value
 rather than assuming it is 'complex' when the method is called.
