Replace classical reals quotient axioms by functional extensionality. Define homotopy propositions and homotopy sets. Rename local variable R in test Nsatz, to avoid a name collision with the type of real numbers.

+- New module `Reals.ClassicalDedekindReals` defines Dedekind real numbers
+ as boolean-values functions along with 3 logical axioms: limited principle
+ of omniscience, excluded middle of negations and functional extensionality.
+ The exposed type :g:`R` in module :g:`Reals.Rdefinitions` is those
+ Dedekind reals, hidden behind an opaque module.
+ Classical Dedekind reals are a quotient of constructive reals, which allows
+ to transport many constructive proofs to the classical case.
+
+ See `#10827 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/10827>`_, by Vincent Semeria,
+ based on discussions with Guillaume Melquiond, Bas Spitters and Hugo Herbelin,
+ code review by Hugo Herbelin.
