r"""
Compute the splitting field of a given polynomial, defined over a
number field.
INPUT:
- ``poly`` -- a monic polynomial over a number field
- ``name`` -- a variable name for the number field
- ``map`` -- (default: ``False``) also return an embedding of
``poly`` into the resulting field. Note that computing this
embedding might be expensive.
- ``degree_multiple`` -- a multiple of the absolute degree of
the splitting field. If ``degree_multiple`` equals the actual
degree, this can enormously speed up the computation.
- ``abort_degree`` -- abort by raising a :class:`SplittingFieldAbort`
if it can be determined that the absolute degree of the splitting
field is strictly larger than ``abort_degree``.
- ``simplify`` -- (default: ``True``) during the algorithm, try
to find a simpler defining polynomial for the intermediate
number fields using PARI's ``polred()``. This usually speeds
up the computation but can also considerably slow it down.
Try and see what works best in the given situation.
- ``simplify_all`` -- (default: ``False``) If ``True``, simplify
intermediate fields and also the resulting number field.
OUTPUT:
If ``map`` is ``False``, the splitting field as an absolute number
field. If ``map`` is ``True``, a tuple ``(K, phi)`` where ``phi``
is an embedding of the base field in ``K``.
EXAMPLES::
sage: R.<x> = PolynomialRing(QQ)
sage: K.<a> = (x^3 + 2).splitting_field(); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^6 + 3*x^5 + 6*x^4 + 11*x^3 + 12*x^2 - 3*x + 1
sage: K.<a> = (x^3 - 3*x + 1).splitting_field(); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^3 - 3*x + 1
The ``simplify`` and ``simplify_all`` flags usually yield
fields defined by polynomials with smaller coefficients.
By default, ``simplify`` is True and ``simplify_all`` is False.

A value for ``degree_multiple`` which isn't actually a
