Short games #
A combinatorial game is Short [Conway, ch.9][conway2001] if it has only finitely many positions.
In particular, this means there is a finite set of moves at every point.
We prove that the order relations ≤ and <, and the equivalence relation ≈, are decidable on
short games, although unfortunately in practice decide doesn't seem to be able to
prove anything using these instances.
A synonym for Short.mk that specifies the pgame in an implicit argument.

Extracting the Short instance for a move by Left.
This would be a dangerous instance potentially introducing new metavariables
in typeclass search, so we only make it an instance locally.

If x is a short game, and y is a relabelling of x, then y is also short.
