[isabelle-dev] [isabelle] Tiny minor backward-compatible changes to IFOL

[Lawrence Paulson]

It would be great if we could finalise the proposal for the uniqueness quantifier.

I was planning to do this in a strictly upward compatible way, so with no implications for the existing quantifier notations and no changes to existing theorems, but a few new theorems. For that I think that "∃⇩≤⇩1” is a standard notation and works well enough. The notation “∃!” for unique existence is also absolutely standard and surely does not need to change.
