- so far, `gf2()` runs in a `strict` mode by default
=> `gf2(42)` results in a `ValueError`
- we adapt `gf2()` (a.k.a. `lalib.elements.galois.GF2Element`)
such that it behaves more like the built-in `bool()`
=> `gf2(42)` returns `one`, like `bool(42)` returns `True`
- further, the `GF2Element` class is adjusted such that
`one` and `zero` assume their counterparts to be
`1`-like or `0`-like objects during binary operations;
other values result in an error
=> for example, `one + 1` works but `one + 42` does not
=> so, when used in binary operations, `one` and `zero`
continue to cast their counterparts in `strict` mode
- simplify the casting logic
- make `value` a positional-only argument in `gf2()`
(like most of the built-in constructors)
- provide more usage examples in the docstrings
clarifying when `strict` mode is used and when not
- propagate the above changes to the test suite:
+ adapt test cases with regard to the `strict` mode logic
+ add new test cases to `assert` how `gf2()`
can process `str`ings directly
+ rename two test cases involving `complex` numbers
to mimic the naming from the newly added test cases
