The symmetric powers as functors on the category of modules

Given M : ModuleCat R over a commutative ring R and n : ℕ, this file defines M.symmetricPower n : ModuleCat R as the degree-n homogeneous submodule TauCeti.SymmetricAlgebra.homogeneousSubmodule R M n of the symmetric algebra of M, and extends it to a functor ModuleCat.symmetricPower.functor R n. The zeroth and first symmetric powers are identified with R and with M, naturally.

The degree-n piece of the symmetric algebra is used rather than the symmetric tensor power Sym[R]^n M: Mathlib's SymmetricPower R ι M requires the index type ι to live in the universe of R, so Sym[R]^n M = Sym[R] (Fin n) M is only available for rings in Type, while the homogeneous pieces exist in every universe and assemble into the graded symmetric algebra.

This is the analogue of Mathlib's ModuleCat.exteriorPower, and it is the sectionwise input for the symmetric powers of presheaves and sheaves of modules.
