7d72c9b6b5 refactor(library/algebra/{field,ordered_field}, library/*): more renaming, setting implicit arguments
Many theorems for division rings and fields have stronger versions for discrete fields, where we
assume x / 0 = 0. Before, we used primes to distinguish the versions, but that has the downside
that e.g. for rat and real, all the theorems are equally present. Now, I qualified the weaker ones
with division_ring.foo or field.foo. Maybe that is not ideal, but let's try it.

I also set implicit arguments with the following convention: an argument to a theorem should be
explicit unless it can be inferred from the other arguments and hypotheses.

4a36f843f7 refactor(library/algebra/group_power,library/*): change definition of pow
I changed the definition of pow so that a^(succ n) reduces to a * a^n rather than a^n * a.

This has the nice effect that on nat and int, where multiplication is defined by recursion on the right,
a^1 reduces to a, and a^2 reduces to a * a.

The change was a pain in the neck, and in retrospect maybe not worth it, but oh, well.
