Replace/remove some occurences of `persistently` into `persistent` where the property instead of the modality is used.

I have reimplemented the tactic for introduction of ∀s/pures using type
classes, which directly made it much more modular.

persistent context.

Given the source does not contain a box:

- Before: no-op if there is a Persistent instance.
- Now: no-op in all cases.

This enables things like `iSpecialize ("H2" with "H1") in the below:

  "H1" : P
  ---------□
  "H2" : □ P -∗ Q
  ---------∗
  R

This fixes issue #81.

- Allow framing of persistent hypotheses below the always modality.
- Allow framing of persistent hypotheses in just one branch of a
  disjunction.

- Support for a `//` modifier to close the goal using `done`.
- Support for framing in the `[#]` specialization pattern for
  persistent premises, i.e. `[# $H1 $H2]`
- Add new "auto framing patterns" `[$]`, `[# $]` and `>[$]` that
  will try to solve the premise by framing. Hypothesis that are
  not framed are carried over to the next goal.

This fixes issue #72.

For example, when having `"H" : ∀ x : Z, P x`, using
`iSpecialize ("H" $! (0:nat))` now works. We do this by first
resolving the `IntoForall` type class, and then instantiating
the quantifier.

Instead of doing all the instantiations by invoking a single type
class search, it now performs the instantiations by invoking
individual type class searches. This a.) gives better error messages
and b.) works when `xj` depends on `xi`.

In the following ways:
- When having `P → Q` it will now also work when the spatial context
  is non-empty.
- When having `∀ x : A, Q` it will now do an `iIntros (_)`.

This fixes issue #62.

This patch was created using

  find -name *.v | xargs -L 1 awk -i inplace '{from = 0} /^From/{ from = 1; ever_from = 1} { if (from == 0 && seen == 0 && ever_from == 1) { print "Set Default Proof Using \"Type*\"."; seen = 1 } }1 '

and some minor manual editing

    The idea on magic wand is to use it for curried lemmas and use ⊢ for uncurried lemmas.

Use COFEs only for the recursive domain equation solver

The old name didn't make much sense. Also now we can have
pure_False too.

This way we avoid the env_cbv tactic unfolding string related stuff
that appears in the goal and hypotheses of the proof mode.

The old choice for ★ was a arbitrary: the precedence of the ASCII asterisk *
was fixed at a wrong level in Coq, so we had to pick another symbol. The ★ was
a random choice from a unicode chart.

The new symbol ∗ (as proposed by David Swasey) corresponds better to
conventional practise and matches the symbol we use on paper.

That's like what we are doing when instantiating an arrow or wand.

This is more consistent with our current consensus of not using
implication. Also, it allows one to reintroduce the persistent
hypothesis into the spatial context.

There are now two proof mode tactics for dealing with modalities:

- `iModIntro` : introduction of a modality
- `iMod pm_trm as (x1 ... xn) "ipat"` : eliminate a modality

The behavior of these tactics can be controlled by instances of the `IntroModal`
and `ElimModal` type class. We have declared instances for later, except 0,
basic updates and fancy updates. The tactic `iMod` is flexible enough that it
can also eliminate an updates around a weakest pre, and so forth.

The corresponding introduction patterns of these tactics are `!>` and `>`.

These tactics replace the tactics `iUpdIntro`, `iUpd` and `iTimeless`.

Source of backwards incompatability: the introduction pattern `!>` is used for
introduction of arbitrary modalities. It used to introduce laters by stripping
of a later of each hypotheses.
