extrasForTheKernel -- constructions of prime fields and artinian reductions

Description

Overview: A collection of a few functions that will be handy in many cases.

Perhaps the most interesting is the funcion randomKRationalPoint, which for a finite ground field K of moderate size, will find a K-rational points on a positive dimensional projective algebraic set X under the asumption that the degree of X is small compared to the char K.
