Bergelson's intersectivity lemma

This file proves the Bergelson intersectivity lemma: In a finite measure space, a sequence of events that have measure at least r has an infinite subset whose finite intersections all have positive volume.

This is in some sense a finitary version of the second Borel-Cantelli lemma.

TODO

Restate the theorem using the upper density of a set of naturals, once we have it. This will make bergelson' be actually strong (and please then rename it to strong_bergelson).

Use the ergodic theorem to deduce the refinement of the Poincaré recurrence theorem proved by Bergelson.

TODO: The infinity of t should be strengthened to t having positive natural density.
