Try to use L/K notation for field extensions

We could also try to consistenly use "field extension" and not just
"extension" and consistently use "ring extension", etc.

Varieties: Loos ends

	There is much more work to be done here. For example this
	commit adds the fact that if X is a variety over a field k then
	there exists a finite purely inseparable extension k' of k such
	that (X_{k'})_{red} is geometrically reduced -- and of course in
	actuality the result is slightly more general.

	There is a similar result regarding geometric irreducibility
	which we should add as well, and we can also think about the
	correct formulation of such a result for geometric connectivity.

	Also, in the section on unit groups we have not yet stated the
	consequence that if X is a variety over k and k is algebraically
	closed in k(X) then O(X)^*/k^* is a finitely generated abelian
	group. In particular, this gives the same result for
	geometrically integral varieties.
