@eprog\noindent Note that even though $-1$ is an exact cube root of $-1$,
it is not $\exp(\log(-1)/3)$; the latter is returned.
Otherwise return a solution $y$ of $y^q = x^p$ if it exists; beware that
this is defined up to $q$-th roots of 1 in the base field. Intmods modulo
composite numbers are not supported.
