This makes stuff more uniform and also removes the need for the [inGFs]
type class. Instead, there is now a type class [subG Σ1 Σ2] which expresses
that a list of functors [Σ1] is contained in [Σ2].

This better reflects the name of the bind rule.

I renamed an internal tactic that was previously called wp_bind into
wp_bind_core.

Also make those for introduction and elimination more symmetric:

  !%   pure introduction         %        pure elimination
  !#   always introduction       #        always elimination
  !>   later introduction        > pat    timeless later elimination
  !==> view shift introduction   ==> pat  view shift elimination

This commit features:

- A simpler model. The recursive domain equation no longer involves a triple
  containing invariants, physical state and ghost state, but just ghost state.
  Invariants and physical state are encoded using (higher-order) ghost state.

- (Primitive) view shifts are formalized in the logic and all properties about
  it are proven in the logic instead of the model. Instead, the core logic
  features only a notion of raw view shifts which internalizing performing frame
  preserving updates.

- A better behaved notion of mask changing view shifts. In particular, we no
  longer have side-conditions on transitivity of view shifts, and we have a
  rule for introduction of mask changing view shifts |={E1,E2}=> P with
  E2 ⊆ E1 which allows to postpone performing a view shift.

- The weakest precondition connective is formalized in the logic using Banach's
  fixpoint. All properties about the connective are proven in the logic instead
  of directly in the model.

- Adequacy is proven in the logic and uses a primitive form of adequacy for
  uPred that only involves raw views shifts and laters.

Some remarks:

- I have removed binary view shifts. I did not see a way to describe all rules
  of the new mask changing view shifts using those.
- There is no longer the need for the notion of "frame shifting assertions" and
  these are thus removed. The rules for Hoare triples are thus also stated in
  terms of primitive view shifts.

TODO:

- Maybe rename primitive view shift into something more sensible
- Figure out a way to deal with closed proofs (see the commented out stuff in
  tests/heap_lang and tests/barrier_client).

In order to improve flexibility, I have reverted the changes in commit
5cabd278 to counter, lock and spawn because an explicit namespace may be in
the way of modularity, for example, if the interfaces of these libraries will
expose namespaces through view shifts in the future.

Exposure of namespaces in the case of par is very unlikely, so to that end,
par remains to use an explicit namespace.

The intropattern {H} also meant clear (both in ssreflect, and the logic
part of the introduction pattern).

Concretely, when execution of any of the wp_ tactics does not yield
another wp, it will make sure that a view shift is kept. This
behavior was already partially there, but now it is hopefully more
consistent.

This introduces n hypotheses and destructs the nth one.

be the same as ↔.

This is a fairly intrusive change, but at least makes notations more
consistent, and often shorter because fewer parentheses are needed. Note
that viewshifts already had the same precedence as →.

Changes:
- We no longer have a different syntax for specializing a term H : P -★ Q whose
  range P or domain Q is persistent. There is just one syntax, and the system
  automatically determines whether either P or Q is persistent.
- While specializing a term, always modalities are automatically stripped. This
  gets rid of the specialization pattern !.
- Make the syntax of specialization patterns more consistent. The syntax for
  generating a goal is [goal_spec] where goal_spec is one of the following:

    H1 .. Hn : generate a goal using hypotheses H1 .. Hn
   -H1 .. Hn : generate a goal using all hypotheses but H1 .. Hn
           # : generate a goal for the premise in which all hypotheses can be
               used. This is only allowed when specializing H : P -★ Q where
               either P or Q is persistent.
           % : generate a goal for a pure premise.

And make constants P for which we do not want of_val P to reduce Opaque.

iSpecialize and iDestruct.

These tactics now all take an iTrm, which is a tuple consisting of
a.) a lemma or name of a hypotheses b.) arguments to instantiate
c.) a specialization pattern.

This gets rid of the (ambiguous) notation %l, because we can declare
LitLoc as a coercion. It also shortens the code.
