Explicit `bigop` enumeration handling
Added lemmas `big_enum_cond`, `big_enum` and `big_enumP` to handle more explicitly big ops iterating over explicit enumerations in a `finType`. The previous practice was to rely on the convertibility between `enum A` and `filter A (index_enum T)`, sometimes explicitly via the `filter_index_enum` equality, more often than not implicitly. Both are likely to fail after the integration of `finmap`, as the `choiceType` theory can’t guarantee that the order in selected enumerations is consistent. For this reason `big_enum` and the related (but currently unused) `big_image` lemmas are restricted to the abelian case. The `big_enumP` lemma can be used to handle enumerations in the non-abelian case, as explained in the `bigop.v` internal documentation. The Changelog entry enjoins clients to stop relying on either `filter_index_enum` and convertibility (though this PR still provides both), and warns about the restriction of the `big_image` lemma set to the abelian case, as it it a possible source of incompatibility.
