limits of psi



Dan Gildea added at least part of the Gruntz method to Maxima. The
gruntz function isn't documented, so I'm not sure that it is intended 
to be a user-level function:

 (%i12) gruntz(x * log(log(x)),x,0, 'minus);
 (%o12) 0

Maybe limit even calls gruntz on occasion. But gruntz has trouble with
limits of psi: 

(%i13) gruntz(psi[0](x),x,inf, 'minus);
taylor: mrv not implemented
psi[0](x)
