Subject: [lib] Split auxiliary libraries into Coq-specific and general.

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.

-(** * Low-level management of OCaml backtraces.
-
-  Currently, OCaml manages its backtraces in a very imperative way. That is to
-  say, it only keeps track of the stack destroyed by the last raised exception.
-  So we have to be very careful when using this module not to do silly things.
-
-  Basically, you need to manually handle the reraising of exceptions. In order
-  to do so, each time the backtrace is lost, you must [push] the stack fragment.
-  This essentially occurs whenever a [with] handler is crossed.

-    The intended use case is of the form: {[
-
-    try foo
-      with
-      | Bar -> bar
-      | err -> let err = add_backtrace err in baz
-
-    ]}
-
-    WARNING: any intermediate code between the [with] and the handler may
-    modify the backtrace. Yes, that includes [when] clauses. Ideally, what you
-    should do is something like: {[
-
-    try foo
-      with err ->
-        let err = add_backtrace err in
-        match err with
-        | Bar -> bar
-        | err -> baz
-
-    ]}
-
-    I admit that's a bit heavy, but there is not much to do...

-(** Append the backtrace from [src] to [dst]. The returned exception is [dst]
-    except for its backtrace information. This is targeted at container
-    exceptions, that is, exceptions that contain exceptions. This way, one can
-    transfer the backtrace from the container to the underlying exception, as if
-    the latter was the one originally raised. *)
