Part of #718.

SolveByDividingByTheRoot rationalises (a + b x^n)^p/(c + d x^n) by dividing by the root, but it declined as soon as a power of x stood below the bar beside the other binomial. It now takes that power of x into the lowered exponent, so (a + b x^3)^(1/3)/(x^2 (c + d x^3)) (Rubi 1.1.3.4:763) is answered.

Measured on a15d60e (master) and this branch:

master this branch
(a+b x^3)^(1/3)/(x^2 (c+d x^3)) declines 857 chars
(a+b x^3)^(1/3)/(x^11 (c+d x^3)) declines 4,974
(a+b x^3)^(4/3)/(x^2 (c+d x^3)) declines 1,562
(a+b x^3)^(4/3)/(x^14 (c+d x^3)) declines 6,092
1/(x^2 (a+b x^3)^(2/3) (c+d x^3)) declines 1,586
(a+b x^3)^(1/3)/(x^2 (a d-b d x^3)) declines 773
1/(x^2 (1-x^3)^(2/3) (1+x^3)) declines 471

Corpus, every family against 0608d5e: 17 problems move from unsolved to solved (1.1.3.4:666–669, 723–724, 763–766, 799–803, 838–839), 0 wrong, nothing lost. 1.1.3.4:857 and 3.2.1:292 time out on both arms when re-run alone. Kernel gate passed; suite 15,220 passed.

A BREAKING-CHANGES.md entry records the new answers, measured against 2.5.0, which declines all of them.
