This PR contains the non-controversial subset of PR #2061, i.e. it drops the RootInt kernel rewrite, and some subsequent tweaks.

I hope this can be merged ASAP, after which I'd rebase PR #2061.

This gives perhaps 5-8% improvement for me. Not much,
but worthwhile.
Before:

gap> SumX([-100000 .. 100000], [-5,2,3,5,7,251,256], PVALUATION_INT);; time;
615

After:

gap> SumX([-100000 .. 100000], [-5,2,3,5,7,251,256], PVALUATION_INT);; time;
327
Also correct a comment which claimed Euler's criterion was used,
but it is actually Fermat's little theorem.
Before:
gap> Number([-100000..100000], IsPrimePowerInt);; time;

After:
