This PR significantly improves the performance of auto-completion by
optimizing individual requests by a factor of ~2 and by giving language
clients like VS Code the opportunity to reuse the state of previous
completion requests, thus greatly reducing the latency for the
auto-completion list to update when adding more characters to an
identifier.
In my testing:
- The latency of completing `C` in a file with `import Mathlib` was
reduced from ~1650ms to ~800ms
- The latency of completing `Cat` in a file with `import Mathlib` was
reduced from ~800ms to ~430ms
- The latency of completing dot notation was mostly unaffected
- Successive completions are now practically instant, e.g. if we were to
complete `C` and then type it out to `Cat`, before it would take roughly
~1650ms + ~800ms, whereas now there is only a significant latency for
completing `C` (~800ms) and the completion list is updated practically
instantly when typing out `Cat`.

In detail, this PR makes the following changes:
- Set `isIncomplete` to `false` in non-synthetic completion responses so
that the client can re-use these completion states.
- Replace the server side fuzzy matching with a simple and fast check
that all characters in the identifier thus far are present in the same
order in the declaration to match against. There are some examples where
the simple and fast check yields a completion item that the fuzzy
matching would filter, but since VS Code filters the completion items
with its own fuzzy matching after that anyways, these extra completion
items are never actually displayed to the user.
- Remove all notions of scoring and sorting completion items from the
language server. We now rely entirely on the client to sort the
completion items as it sees fit. In my testing, the only significant
change as a result of this is that while the language server would
sometimes penalize namespaces with lots of components, VS Code instead
uses a strictly alphabetic order. Even before this change, we never
actually really prioritized local variables over global variables, so
the penalty wasn't very helpful in practice. We might add some small
form of local variable prioritization in the future, though.
- Remove the empty completion list hack that was introduced in #1885. It
does not appear to be necessary anymore.
This PR is an effort to improve reasoning at the Nat level about
bitvectors and reduce of Fin and Nat.
It slightly tightens some proofs, but is generally aimed at reducing
inconsistencies between definitions at the Nat and Fin types in favor of
more consistently using Nat operations.
This ports leanprover/std4#664 to Lean core.
Here was the rational I provided in the discussion for
leanprover/std4#664:
It's mostly about consistency. If we use the same types and style in
definitions and proofs, there is less surprise when unfolding or
otherwise using definitions. We use some Nat based operations that
haven't been extended to Fin such as the bitwise operations, and I don't
want to pay the overhead of introducing a Fin version of every Bitvector
operation.
So this basically means Nat is preferred.
One argument potentially in favor of Fin is that we could reuse results
proven there, but that doesn't really seem to be the case so far.
A second argument is that we want to simplify expression to use more
canonical forms and we currently can pretty-print those operations
better using ofNat than ofFin. We could define the notations using ofFin
of course though, but that's additional operators that will show up in
expressions.
