* Remove dependency on `filehook` package. Just to simplify.
* Remove patch code for the `colonequals` package; now if you use
that package you will simply receive its standard ‘constructed’ symbols.
* Load `amsmath` automatically. This is not intended to save time for
the user, but to simplify the code logic. Users should continue to
load `amsmath` explicitly IMO.
