Use cell() instead of the deprecated list()
The list() function has been deprecated in Octave. The patch below
replaces all calls to list() in the scripts poly2sym.m, sym2poly.m,
and symfsolve.m by calls to cell().
Also, add a new test using cell in function sym2poly.

If there is only one free variable in @var{p} the ## coefficient vector @var{c} is a plain numeric vector. If there is more ## than one free variable in @var{p}, a second argument @var{x} specifies the ## free variable and the function returns a cell vector of symbolic expressions. ## The coefficients correspond to decreasing exponent of the free variable. ## ## Example: ## @example ## symbols ## x=sym("x"); y=sym("y"); ## c = sym2poly (x^2+3*x-4); # c = [1,3,-4] ## c = sym2poly (x^2+y*x,x); # c = {2,y,0} ## @end example ## ## If @var{p} is not a polynomial the result has no warranty. ## ## @end deftypefn ## @seealso{poly2sym,polyval,roots} ## Author: Willem J.
