Math-Prime-Util

Changes for version 0.43 - 2014-08-16

ADDED
- foroddcomposites like forcomposites, but skips even numbers
- twin_primes as primes but for twin primes
- config: use_primeinc allow the fast but bad PRIMEINC random prime method
REMOVED DEPRECATED NAMES
- all_factors replaced in 0.36 by divisors
- miller_rabin replaced in 0.10 by is_strong_pseudoprime
FUNCTIONALITY AND PERFORMANCE
- Divisors sorted with qsort instead of Shell sort. No appreciable time difference, but slightly less code size.
- Added Micali-Schnorr generator to examples/csrand.pl. Made a version of csrand that uses Math::GMP for faster operation.
- Added synopsis release test. Thanks to Neil Bowers and Toby Inkster.
- ranged euler_phi is more efficient when lo < 100.
- factor for 49 to 64-bit numbers sped up slightly (a small p-1 is tried before SQUFOF for these sizes).
- HOLF factoring sped up using premultiplier first.
