Invert the meaning of the Miller-Rabin test; passes_test meant 'is not
a witness'. Instead call it 'is_witness', returning true if a is a witness for n's compositness, or otherwise false. Also, the previous version would not check that the final value of y was n-1; if it isn't, then n is not prime. This would mean the false negative rate was higher than it should have been, though I'm not sure by how much exactly.
