Discreteness of subgroups in archimedean ordered groups #

This file contains some supplements to the results in Mathlib.Topology.Algebra.Order.Archimedean, involving discreteness of subgroups, which require heavier imports.

In a linearly ordered group with the order topology, the powers of a single element form a discrete subgroup.

In a linearly ordered additive group with the order topology, the multiples of a single element form a discrete subgroup.

In an Archimedean densely linearly ordered group (with the order topology), a subgroup is discrete iff it is cyclic.

In an Archimedean linearly ordered additive group (with the order topology), a subgroup is discrete iff it is cyclic.
