Square-free factorization : sqrfree

sqrfree takes as argument a polynomial.
sqrfree factorizes this polynomial as a product of powers of coprime factors, where each factor has roots of multiplicity 1 (in other words, a factor and it's derivative are coprime).
Input :
sqrfree((x^2-1)*(x-1)*(x+2))
Output :
(x^2+3*x+2)*(x-1)^2
Input :
sqrfree((x^2-1)^2*(x-1)*(x+2)^2)
Output :
(x^2+3*x+2)*(x-1)^3
