Motivation for this change

Split from #2023. Depends on #2026 and #2030. Proves the same result in a nicer way.

Adds the "derivative limit theorem": for $$a \in \mathbb{R}$$ and $$f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$$, if:

  1. $$f$$ is continuous at $$a$$
  2. $$f$$ is derivable near $$a$$ (but not necessarily at $$a$$)
  3. The limit of $$f'(x)$$ as $$x \to a, x \neq a$$ exists and equals $$\ell \in \mathbb{R}$$
    Then $$f$$ is derivable at $$a$$ and $$f'(a) = \ell$$. Also adds sided variants of the result.
Checklist
  • added corresponding entries in CHANGELOG_UNRELEASED.md
  • added corresponding documentation in the headers

Merge policy

As a rule of thumb:

  • PRs with several commits that make sense individually and that
    all compile are preferentially merged into master.
  • PRs with disorganized commits are very likely to be squash-rebased.
