This pull request adds functionality for translations and translational hulls of finite (in particular, enumerable) semigroups. Definitions and some results on this topic can be found in Howie's Fundamentals of Semigroup theory.
A left translation f on a semigroup S is a function f: S->S, written on the left, satisfying f(s)t = f(st) for all s,t in S; a right translation g is written on the right and satisfies s(t)g = (st)g for all s,t in S. Under composition, left [right] translations form a semigroup. For each s in S, f_s: x -> sx is a left translation and g_s: x -> xs is a right translation (called inner translations).
A left translation and right translation are linked if sf(t) = (s)gt for all s,t in S. The set of linked translations forms a semigroup, called the translational hull. The subsemigroup {(f_s, g_s): s in S} is called the inner translational hull.
Over an arbitrary semigroup, there may be far too many translations (e.g. 10^200 for a zero semigroup of size 100) for any naive search to find. For certain semigroups, it is possible to give nice descriptions of the semigroup of left or right translations, and the translational hull. The cases implemented in this PR are:
Left/right translations are internally represented as transformations to act on the list AsListCanonical(S) of the underlying semigroup S. Translational hull elements (bitranslations) are stored as a pair [L, R] where L is a left translation and R is a right translation. An important implementation detail is that such elements must belong to a semigroup; they cannot be created alone. To avoid having to calculate the whole translations semigroup or translational hull to work with a single element, you can create the left/right translations semigroup or translational hull in one of two ways.
