This PR makes the implementations of seq_to_list and seq_of_list much faster (constant time as opposed to linear). There is a bit of refactoring and some new lemmas needed, but everything including everest seems to work (I'll post PRs for subprojects shortly).
For code that makes heavy use of sequences (at the value level) this can make a big difference. Apparently for MLS* it means a performance gain of 50%.
