Can a zero ring have a fraction field at all? What would that be?

So maybe the "currently" can be removed here?

I think the zero ring satisfies the universal property of being a fraction field of the zero ring.

Edit: What I wrote is only correct if you don't insist on the fraction field being a field.

Edit edit: I guess the answer is no. What I wrote makes sense for the "total field of fractions", but not for fraction fields.

Since residue_ring can already be a zero ring, I think it is kinda OK to allow a zero ring as base ring? OTOH I also see no strong need to support a zero ring as base ring. But perhaps it allows to make some code more uniform... In any case, we could probably handle it with some code like this:

Suggested change
@req !is_trivial(R) "Zero rings are currently not supported as base ring."
if is_trivial(R)
a = one(R) # base ring is trivial, so we might as well factor out 1
end

Then again: if R is a zero ring, won't the next code line trigger anyway, which throws an error if iszero(A) is true? If that's a case, we may as well keep this line and strengthen it by removing currently

I would keep the error as provided by the PR for now (with the "currently").

I think the line below with the reference to the C library is a bit misleading, as it is not relevant.

# Modulus of zero cannot be supported. E.g. A C library could not be expected to
# do matrices over Z/0 using a Z/nZ type. The former is multiprecision, the latter not.

I think here, too, we could remove the "currently", as any quotient of a zero ring can't be a field.
