Main results

• Polynomial.natDegree_prod_of_monic : the degree of a product of monic polynomials is the product of degrees. We prove this only for [CommSemiring R], but it ought to be true for [Semiring R] and List.prod.
• Polynomial.natDegree_prod : for polynomials over an integral domain, the degree of the product is the sum of degrees.
• Polynomial.leadingCoeff_prod : for polynomials over an integral domain, the leading coefficient is the product of leading coefficients.
• Polynomial.prod_X_sub_C_coeff_card_pred carries most of the content for computing the second coefficient of the characteristic polynomial.
