[Cuis-dev] [DEFECT] Move of #magnitude to the complex package causes Form>>#magnifyBy: to fail.

[Gerald Klix]

The complex package defines it as `self abs`,
which is consistent with border case i = 0 for the magnitude
of a complex number.

Interestingly enough Point>>#magnitude is still there.

Loading the complex package is a possible fix.

Gerald
