p-adic Valuation

This file defines the p-adic valuation on ℕ, ℤ, and ℚ.

The p-adic valuation on ℚ is the difference of the multiplicities of p in the numerator and denominator of q. This function obeys the standard properties of a valuation, with the appropriate assumptions on p. The p-adic valuations on ℕ and ℤ agree with that on ℚ.

The valuation induces a norm on ℚ. This norm is defined in Mathlib/NumberTheory/Padics/PadicNorm.lean.
