Completely rewrote inductive definition package. Now allows to define n-ary predicates directly (rather than sets of n-tuples), using generalized fixpoint theory for arbitrary complete lattices.

 Features:
   * least or greatest fixedpoints
-  * user-specified product and sum constructions
   * mutually recursive definitions
   * definitions involving arbitrary monotone operators
   * automatically proves introduction and elimination rules
 
-The recursive sets must *already* be declared as constants in the
-current theory!
-
   Introduction rules have the form
-  [| ti:M(Sj), ..., P(x), ... |] ==> t: Sk
+  [| M Pj ti, ..., Q x, ... |] ==> Pk t
   where M is some monotone operator (usually the identity)
-  P(x) is any side condition on the free variables
+  Q x is any side condition on the free variables
   ti, t are any terms
-  Sj, Sk are two of the sets being defined in mutual recursion
-
-Sums are used only for mutual recursion.  Products are used only to
-derive "streamlined" induction rules for relations.
+  Pj, Pk are two of the predicates being defined in mutual recursion
