    Fast Polynomial Multiplication using radix-2 fast Fourier Transform.

    Reference:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooley%E2%80%93Tukey_FFT_algorithm#The_radix-2_DIT_case

    For polynomials of degree m and n the algorithms has complexity
    O(n*logn + m*logm)

    The main part of the algorithm is split in two parts:
        1) __DFT: We compute the discrete fourier transform (DFT) of A and B using a
        bottom-up dynamic approach -
        2) __multiply: Once we obtain the DFT of A*B, we can similarly
        invert it to obtain A*B

    The class FFT takes two polynomials A and B with complex coefficients as arguments;
    The two polynomials should be represented as a sequence of coefficients starting
    from the free term. Thus, for instance x + 2*x^3 could be represented as
    [0,1,0,2] or (0,1,0,2). The constructor adds some zeros at the end so that the
    polynomials have the same length which is a power of 2 at least the length of
    their product.

    Example:

    Create two polynomials as sequences
    >>> A = [0, 1, 0, 2]  # x+2x^3
    >>> B = (2, 3, 4, 0)  # 2+3x+4x^2

    Create an FFT object with them
    >>> x = FFT(A, B)

    Print product
    >>> print(x.product)  # 2x + 3x^2 + 8x^3 + 4x^4 + 6x^5
    [(-0+0j), (2+0j), (3+0j), (8+0j), (6+0j), (8+0j)]

    __str__ test
    >>> print(x)
    A = 0*x^0 + 1*x^1 + 2*x^0 + 3*x^2
    B = 0*x^2 + 1*x^3 + 2*x^4
    A*B = 0*x^(-0+0j) + 1*x^(2+0j) + 2*x^(3+0j) + 3*x^(8+0j) + 4*x^(6+0j) + 5*x^(8+0j)
