feat: binderNameHint (#6947)
This PR adds the `binderNameHint` gadget. It can be used in rewrite and
simp rules to preserve a user-provided name where possible.

The expression `binderNameHint v binder e` defined to be `e`.

If it is used on the right-hand side of an equation that is applied by a
tactic like `rw` or `simp`,
and `v` is a local variable, and `binder` is an expression that (after
beta-reduction) is a binder
(so `fun w => …` or `∀ w, …`), then it will rename `v` to the name used
in the binder, and remove
the `binderNameHint`.

A typical use of this gadget would be as follows; the gadget ensures
that after rewriting, the local
variable is still `name`, and not `x`:
```
theorem all_eq_not_any_not (l : List α) (p : α → Bool) :
    l.all p = !l.any fun x => binderNameHint x p (!p x) := sorry

example (names : List String) : names.all (fun name => "Waldo".isPrefixOf name) = true := by
  rw [all_eq_not_any_not]
  -- ⊢ (!names.any fun name => !"Waldo".isPrefixOf name) = true
```

This gadget is supported by `simp`, `dsimp` and `rw` in the
right-hand-side of an equation, but not
in hypotheses or by other tactics.
