BUG,DEP: Make `scalar.__round__()` behave like pythons round (#15840)
See issue gh-15297 and related mailing list discussion.
This PR bring scalar.__round__() in line with python, so that `round(scalar)` always returns a python integer, while `round(scalar, ndigits=0)` returns the same type. Since complex numbers are not supported in Python, and cannot be reasonably cast to integers they are deprecated.
Closes gh-15297
