feat: add coinductive command to specify coinductive predicates (#10333)
This PR introduces a `coinductive` keyword, that can be used to define
coinductive predicates via a syntax identical to the one for `inductive`
keyword. The machinery relies on the implementation of elaboration of
inductive types and extracts an endomap on the appropriate space of the
predicates from the definition that is then fed to the
`PartialFixpoint`. Upon elaborating definitions, all the constructors
are declared through automatically generated lemmas.

For example, infinite sequence of transitions in a relation, can be
given by the following:
```lean4
section
variable (α : Type)
coinductive infSeq (r : α → α → Prop) : α → Prop where
  | step : r a b → infSeq r b → infSeq r a
  
/--
info: infSeq.coinduct (α : Type) (r : α → α → Prop) (pred : α → Prop) (hyp : ∀ (x : α), pred x → ∃ b, r x b ∧ pred b)
  (x✝ : α) : pred x✝ → infSeq α r x✝
-/
#guard_msgs in
#check infSeq.coinduct

/--
info: infSeq.step (α : Type) (r : α → α → Prop) {a b : α} : r a b → infSeq α r b → infSeq α r a
-/
#guard_msgs in
#check infSeq.step
end
```
The machinery also supports `mutual` blocks, as well as mixing inductive
and coinductive predicate definitions:
```lean4
mutual
  coinductive tick : Prop where
  | mk : ¬tock → tick

  inductive tock : Prop where
  | mk : ¬tick → tock
end

/--
info: tick.mutual_induct (pred_1 pred_2 : Prop) (hyp_1 : pred_1 → pred_2 → False) (hyp_2 : (pred_1 → False) → pred_2) :
  (pred_1 → tick) ∧ (tock → pred_2)
-/
#guard_msgs in
#check tick.mutual_induct
```
