This PR introduces slices of lists that are available via slice notation
(e.g., `xs[1...5]`).
* Moved the `take` combinator and the `List` iterator producer to
`Init`.
* Introduced a `toTake` combinator: `it.toTake` behaves like `it`, but
it has the same type as `it.take n`. There is a constant cost per
iteration compared to `it` itself.
* Introduced `List` slices. Their iterators are defined as
`suffixList.iter.take n` for upper-bounded slices and
`suffixList.iter.toTake` for unbounded ones.
Performance characteristics of using the slice `list[a...b]`:
* when creating it: `O(a)`
* every iterator step: `O(1)`
* `toList`: `O(b - a + 1)` (given that a <= b)
Because the slice only stores a suffix of `xs` internally, two slices
can be equal even though the underlying lists differ in an irrelevant
prefix. Because the `stop` field is allowed to be beyond the list's
upper bound, the slices `[1][0...1]` and `[1][0...2]` are not equal,
even though they effectively cover the same range of the same list.
Improving this would require us to call `List.length` when building the
slice, which would iterate through the whole list.
This PR provides an iterator combinator that lifts the emitted values
into a higher universe level via `ULift`. This combinator is then used
to make the subarray iterators universe-polymorphic. Previously, they
were only available for `Subarray α` if `α : Type`.
This PR introduces polymorphic slices in their most basic form. They
come with a notation similar to the new range notation. `Subarray` is
now also a slice and can produce an iterator now. It is intended to
migrate more operations of `Subarray` to the `Slice` wrapper type to
make them available for slices of other types, too.
The PR also moves the `filterMap` combinators into `Init` because they
are used internally to implement iterators on array slices.
