More functions have been changed to use `EConstr`, notably the

+ functions in `Evd`, and in particular `Evd.define`.
+
+ Note that the core function `EConstr.to_constr` now _enforces_ by
+ default that the resulting term is ground, that is to say, free of
+ Evars. This is usually what you want, as open terms should be of
+ type `EConstr.t` to benefit from the invariants the `EConstr` API is
+ meant to guarantee.
+
+ In case you'd like to violate this API invariant, you can use the
+ `abort_on_undefined_evars` flag to `EConstr.to_constr`, but note
+ that setting this flag to false is deprecated so it is only meant to
+ be used as to help port pre-EConstr code.
