[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.
