eqToHom in bicategories

This file records some of the behavior of eqToHom 1-morphisms and 2-morphisms in bicategories.

Given an equality of objects h : x = y in a bicategory, there is a 1-morphism eqToHom h : x ⟶ y just like in an ordinary category. The definitional property of this morphism is that if h : x = x, eqToHom h = 𝟙 x. This is implemented as the eqToHom morphism in the CategoryStruct underlying the bicategory.

Unlike the situation in ordinary category theory, these 1-morphisms do not compose strictly: eqToHom h.trans h' is merely isomorphic to eqToHom h ≫ eqToHom h'. We define this isomorphism as CategoryTheory.Bicategory.eqToHomTransIso.

Given an equality of 1-morphisms, we show that various bicategorical structure morphisms such as unitors, associators and whiskering conjugate well under eqToHoms.

TODO

• Define eqToEquiv that puts the eqToHoms in an Equivalence between objects.

def CategoryTheory.Bicategory.eqToHomTransIso {B : Type u} [Bicategory B] {x y z : B} (e₁ : x = y) (e₂ : y = z) : eqToHom ⋯ ≅ CategoryStruct.comp (eqToHom e₁) (eqToHom e₂)

In a bicategory, eqToHoms do not compose strictly, but they do up to isomorphism.
