New issue 3368 by cristeab: Add binomial expansion for non integer powers: (a+b)^p, where p is non integer
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3368

The difference wrt to binomial expansion for integer powers is that (a+b)^5 is a finite sum, while (a+b)^0.5 is an infinite sum (http://www.pa.msu.edu/~stump/app.pdf)

The expansion is more interesting when it becomes like this (1+a)^0.5 because it allows to avoid computing noninteger powers (useful for example in fixed-point implementations)
