Free groupoid on a quiver

This file defines the free groupoid on a quiver, the lifting of a prefunctor to its unique extension as a functor from the free groupoid, and proves uniqueness of this extension.

Main results

Given the type V and a quiver instance on V:

• FreeGroupoid V: a type synonym for V.
• FreeGroupoid.instGroupoid: the Groupoid instance on FreeGroupoid V.
• lift: the lifting of a prefunctor from V to V' where V' is a groupoid, to a functor. FreeGroupoid V ⥤ V'.
• lift_spec and lift_unique: the proofs that, respectively, lift indeed is a lifting and is the unique one.

Implementation notes

The free groupoid is first defined by symmetrifying the quiver, taking the induced path category and finally quotienting by the reducibility relation.
