We're testing the cmath functions on complex number inputs; I don't think it matters much how those complex numbers are created. The string form of the constructor can't create any complex numbers that the two-argument `complex(x, y)` form can't, so we're not losing test coverage by only using the `complex(x, y)` form.
The complex number creation from both strings and pairs of floats should be tested independently, of course.
