No zero divisors in presheaf stalks #

If sections on a basis of open neighborhoods of a point have no zero divisors, the stalk has no zero divisors. This applies to semiring-valued concrete categories whose forgetful functor preserves filtered colimits; neither commutativity nor the sheaf condition is needed. The proof uses Mathlib's TopCat.Presheaf.exists_le_germ_eq to represent two germs on a common neighborhood and TopCat.Presheaf.germ_eq to witness their product vanishing locally.

A presheaf stalk has no zero divisors if sections on a neighborhood basis do.
