Hensel's lemma on ℤ_p

This file proves Hensel's lemma on ℤ_p, roughly following Keith Conrad's writeup: http://www.math.uconn.edu/~kconrad/blurbs/gradnumthy/hensel.pdf

Hensel's lemma gives a simple condition for the existence of a root of a polynomial.

The proof and motivation are described in the paper [R. Y. Lewis, A formal proof of Hensel's lemma over the p-adic integers][lewis2019].
