conv = term -> thm
STRUCTURE
SYNOPSIS
The type of a function which finds an equal term and returns a theorem stating the equality
DESCRIPTION
If the function c is not only of the right type, but is actually what we call a conversion, then (c : conv) (t : term) returns a theorem of the form
   |- t = t'
If (roughly speaking) t is of the right form to be passed to c, but c doesn’t find a desired equal term t' then c t may raise the exception UNCHANGED in preference to returning |- t = t, as it can be dealt with more efficiently.
