This is motivated by #29743, which led me to realize that the current proof of Subgroup.isOpen_of_isClosed_of_finiteIndex is quite complicated. Morally, the proof should be "G / H is T1 because H is closed, finite because H has finite index in G, hence it is discrete, hence H is open".

The issue is that too much of our API on quotient groups (and in particular the separation criterion) was restricted to quotients by normal subgroups. This PR fixes this, and cleans some things along the way.

  • The relative value is the weighted sum of the differences with weight given by the inverse of the current value of the statistic.
  • The absolute value is the relative value divided by the total sum of the inverses of the current values (i.e. the weighted average of the differences).

/-- The quotient of a topological group `G` by a closed subgroup `N` is T1.
When `G` is normal, this implies (because `G ⧸ N` is a topological group) that the quotient is T3
(see `QuotientGroup.instT3Space`).
Back to the general case, we will show later that the quotient is in fact T2
since `N` acts on `G` properly. -/

The T2 instance is added in #30387
The reason I think those instances should coexist is this one only requires ContinuousMul (or even separate continuity of the multiplication in fact)
