The Lebesgue number lemma for neighbourhood covers #

Mathlib's lebesgue_number_lemma_of_metric is stated for a cover of a compact set by open sets. This file records the variant for a family of sets such that every point of the compact set has some member of the family as a neighbourhood, as happens for the preimages of such a cover under a continuous map.

A Lebesgue number for a family of sets c such that every point of the compact set s has some c i as a neighbourhood: there is δ > 0 such that the ball of radius δ around any point of s is contained in some c i.
