Implements the copy-if pattern as a Lean tactic:
- 'copy_if' tries rfl → decide → omega → norm_num → simp in order
- 'copy_if?' reports which closer worked (for profiling)
- Each closer is a 'zero delta' check — if goal is in normal form,
  closes instantly; if not, tries next closer

This is the Lean-native equivalent of:
- Blog post: vpcompressd register-dest = 40x faster
- VCN: numpy copy-if = 3.3x faster
- Pre-filter: skip trivial theorems = 2.7x faster
- LSP: copy_if tactic = instant close for zero-delta goals

Usage:
  import Semantics.CopyIfTactic
  theorem foo : 1 = 1 := by copy_if
  theorem bar : x + 0 = x := by copy_if
  theorem baz : complex := by copy_if  -- falls through to simp

3298 jobs, 0 errors. Tests pass for rfl, decide, omega, norm_num.

+CopyIfTactic.lean — Pre-filter tactic for Lean 4
+
+Implements the copy-if pattern as a native Lean tactic:
+1. Check if goal is trivially closable (zero delta) → close immediately
+2. If non-trivial (non-zero delta) → delegate to solver
+
+Usage:
+  theorem foo : 1 = 1 := by copy_if
+  theorem bar : x + 0 = x := by copy_if
+  theorem baz : complex_statement := by copy_if
+
+The tactic tries fast closers in order of cost:
+  1. rfl (instant — zero delta)
+  2. decide (fast — decidable)
+  3. omega (fast — linear arithmetic)
+  4. simp (slow — full simplification)
