Rename FieldElement#add() method?

It is technically possible but will break a tremendous amount of existing (and difficult) code.

I am therefore quite reluctant to this change, but would like to see what other Hipparchus users think.
If we go this way, we should also change ‘subtract’ to ‘minus’ and ‘multiply’ to ‘time’ for consistency.

It is unfortunate the add term is so generic.
