We need to remove this function from cypari2, because pari 2.17 has
changed precision from words to bits which would cause confusion.

Besides, the current usage is incorrect, since log_pari.precision()
will give the precision in decimal digits not in words.

See: #38749

We need to remove this function from cypari2, because pari 2.17 has
changed precision from words to bits which would cause confusion.

Besides, the current usage is incorrect, since `log_pari.precision()`
will give the precision in *decimal digits* not in words.
