Fixes #38112. Fixed issue causing period function in BinaryRecurrenceSequence to stall. In the loop to calculate the period for the prime powers it now raises an error if you loop too many times. Added an enhancement to calculate the period of a not purely period BinaryRecurrenceSequence. To do this it basically just ignores the first m^2 terms and then calculates the period as normal.
