Up to this point the `lib` directory contained two different library
archives, `clib.cma` and `lib.cma`, which a rough splitting between
Coq-specific libraries and general-purpose ones.
We know split the directory in two, as to make the distinction clear:
- `clib`: contains libraries that are not Coq specific and implement
common data structures and programming patterns. These libraries
could be eventually replace with external dependencies and the rest
of the code base wouldn't notice much.
- `lib`: contains Coq-specific common libraries in widespread use
along the codebase, but that are not considered part of other
components. Examples are printing, error handling, or flags.
In some cases we have coupling due to utility files depending on Coq
specific flags, however this commit doesn't modify any files, but only
moves them around, further cleanup is welcome, as indeed a few files
in `lib` should likely be placed in `clib`.
Also note that `Deque` is not used ATM.

Instead of modifying exceptions to wear additional information, we instead use
a dedicated type now. All exception-using functions were modified to support
this new type, in particular Future's fix_exn-s and the tactic monad.
To solve the problem of enriching exceptions at raise time and recover this
data in the try-with handler, we use a global datastructure recording the
given piece of data imperatively that we retrieve in the try-with handler.
We ensure that such instrumented try-with destroy the data so that there
may not be confusion with another exception. To further harden the correction
of this structure, we also check for pointer equality with the last raised
exception.
The global data structure is not thread-safe for now, which is incorrect as
the STM uses threads and enriched exceptions. Yet, we splitted the patch in
two parts, so that we do not introduce dependencies to the Thread library
immediatly. This will allow to revert only the second patch if ever we
switch to OCaml-coded lightweight threads.

Using OCaml 3.11+ builtin facilities to record stack frames during
exception raising, we can now recover at runtime the backtrace of
an uncaught toplevel exception and display it to the user, without
the infamous OCaml debugger. The backtrace is displayed when using
the [-debug] flag.
This requires a bit of discipline, as each time we reraise an
exception we need to keep track of those frames we discarded
between the previous raise and the current [try-with] branch.
Currently, only [Anomaly] is handled, but this can be ported to any
exception as long as we add the backtrace info into the exception,
and we provide the corresponding handler to
[Backtracke.register_backtrace_handler].
Hopefully this should not be to costly, as we only do little work
when reraising, and only with the [-debug] flag set.
