fix: make rewrite/rw tactic abort on elaboration errors (#6891)
This PR modifies `rewrite`/`rw` to abort rewriting if the elaborated
lemma has any immediate elaboration errors (detected by presence of
synthetic sorries). Rewriting still proceeds if there are elaboration
issues arising from pending synthetic metavariables, like instance
synthesis failures. The purpose of the change is to avoid obscure
"tactic 'rewrite' failed, equality or iff proof expected ?m.5" errors
when for example a lemma does not exist.

This helps error reporting for the natural number game.
