[sage-devel] FLINT 1.0

At long last, all the code and test code that is going into FLINT 1.0 is done. If you are wondering what took so long, I'll just mention that the fmpz_poly-test.c file has over 10,000 lines! The only things remaining for me to make the release are: 1) Update the documentation 2) Add the GPL to
