    rename variables, without capture, using a simple
    structural induction. Note how in the [n_abs] case we swap
    all variables, both bound and free.

    For example:

      (swap x y) (\z. (x y)) = \z. (y x))

      (swap x y) (\x. x) = \y.y

      (swap x y) (\y. x) = \x.y

  end.(** Because swapping is a simple, structurally recursive
    function, it is highly automatable using the [default_simp]
    tactic from LNgen library.

    This tactic "simplifies" goals using a combination of
    common proof steps, including case analysis of all disjoint
    sums in the goal. Because atom equality returns a sumbool,
    this makes this tactic useful for reasoning by cases about
    atoms.

    For more information about the [default_simp] tactic, see
    [metalib/LibDefaultSimp.v].

    WARNING: this tactic is not always safe. It's a power tool
    and can put your proof in an irrecoverable state. *)
