6171	[with patch, positive review] make 'prec' work with sqrt more of the time	jhpalmieri	jhpalmieri	"Before this patch:
{{{
sage: sqrt(10.1, prec=100)
...
TypeError: sqrt() got an unexpected keyword argument 'prec'
}}}
This is despite the fact that the docstring for sqrt lists as one of its inputs
{{{
            -  ``prec`` - integer (default: None): if None, returns
               an exact square root; otherwise returns a numerical square root if
               necessary, to the given bits of precision.
}}}
After this patch:
{{{
sage: sqrt(10.1, prec=100)
