witt(List) -- Forms a WittRingElement from a list of ring elements

Description

Given a list $L = \{x_1, \dots , x_n\}$ of elements of the same ring R of positive prime characteristic, this produces the WittRingElement $(x_1, \dots , x_n) \in W_n(R)$.

i1 : R = ZZ/5[x,y,z]/(x^3 + y^3 + z^3);
i2 : x + y

o2 = x + y

o2 : R
