    Cancelable and IdFree typeclasses. · 71c10187

    Cancelable elements are a new way of proving local updates, by
    removing some cancellable element of the global state, provided that
    we own it and we are willing to lose this ownership.
    
    Identity-free elements are an auxiliary that is necessary to prove that
    [Some x] is cancelable.
    
    For technical reasons, these two notions are not defined exactly like
    what one might expect, but also take into account validity. Otherwise,
    an exclusive element would not be cancelable or idfree, which is
    rather confusing.
