bugfix:
Footnotes disappeared when savenotes environment was used _inside_ a

with original footnote package.
This use case has issues though (e.g. consider a minipage in a savenotes
in a minipage: the sub-minipage also starts footnotes at a...), which
were already present in original package or even simply in LaTeX2e (see
remarks at end of pdf documentation), and I didn't try to address them.

Version: 2018-01-20

Summary description: A LaTeX class for producing nice-looking handouts
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
fancyhandout breaks with some of LaTeX's principles and redefines
basic LaTeX commands with the aim of producing well-designed and
clearly structured handouts: A sans-serif font is used by default;
sections are not numbered but highlighted by underlining; head- and
footline display document information; and for avoiding too large
whitespace around the text, the margin sizes are adjusted to a
proper value.
All together, fancyhandout provides a means of typesetting
documents not exclusively consisting of running text in a
beautiful way.

There are two main changes:
- polynomials are also made known as functions to the xintfloatexpr
parser. This is indispensible for numerical algorithms (such as
finding roots by Newton's method or Regula Falsi) as exact
computations quickly give very big fractions.
- there was a breaking change for PolToExpr. It now outputs in
descending powers; use PolToExpr* for ascending powers.
See README.md for more.
The documentation (in polexpr.html) was extended and fully revised.
