Derivation is in my view a basic operation on regular expressions and should be included in the library. Here is a port of the basic definitions and results from regexp-Brzozowski. To avoid the (cons-based)
residual
definition fromlanguage.v
being shadowed, I rename the cat-based residual definition indfa.v
toresidual_cat
.
