An improved PTree data structure (#420)
This PR replaces the "PTree" data structure used in lib/Maps.v by the
canonical binary tries data structure proposed by A. W. Appel and
described in the paper "Efficient Extensional Binary Tries",
https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.05063
The new implementation is more memory-efficient and a bit faster,
resulting in reduced compilation times (-5% on typical C programs, up
to -10% on very large C functions).
It also enjoys the extensionality property (two tries mapping equal
keys to equal data are equal), which simplifies some proofs.
