Generic tableau prover with proof reconstruction

  SKOLEMIZES ReplaceI WRONGLY: allow new vars in prems, or forbid such rules??
  Needs explicit instantiation of assumptions?

Given the typeargs system, constructor Const could be eliminated, with
TConst replaced by a constructor that takes the typargs list as an argument.
However, Const is heavily used for logical connectives.

Blast_tac is often more powerful than fast_tac, but has some limitations.
Blast_tac...
  * ignores wrappers (addss, addbefore, addafter, addWrapper, ...);
    this restriction is intrinsic
  * ignores elimination rules that don't have the correct format
        (conclusion must be a formula variable)
  * rules must not require higher-order unification, e.g. apply_type in ZF
    + message "Function unknown's argument not a bound variable" relates to this
  * its proof strategy is more general but can actually be slower

Known problems:
  "Recursive" chains of rules can sometimes exclude other unsafe formulae
        from expansion.  This happens because newly-created formulae always
        have priority over existing ones.  But obviously recursive rules
        such as transitivity are treated specially to prevent this.  Sometimes
        the formulae get into the wrong order (see WRONG below).

  With substition for equalities (hyp_subst_tac):
        When substitution affects an unsafe formula or literal, it is moved
        back to the list of safe formulae.
        But there's no way of putting it in the right place.  A "moved" or
        "no DETERM" flag would prevent proofs failing here.
