Another coercion problem with QQbar

[davidloeffler]

We had a ticket recently (#12665) for QQbar(zeta(7)) . Amusingly, QQbar(zeta(6)) fails in a completely different way:

sage: QQbar(zeta(6))
ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (1327, 0))

AttributeError: 'AlgebraicConverter' object has no attribute '_operands'

This is pretty minor -- the conversion is obviously absurd, and all that needs to be changed is to get it to return a more informative error message. (Amazing the bugs you can discover from a typo; when I typed QQbar(zeta(7)) it was a typo for QQbar.zeta(7) !)

Looks good to me.
