Switch-sandwich gap bounds: left gap #
The left gap estimate question_switchSandwich_left_gap, bounding the question-level left gap
of the switch-sandwich argument: the counterpart of
MIPRE/Background/LIDT/MIPStarRE/LDT/Preliminaries/SwitchSandwichGapBounds/Left.lean in the port
of planning/c6b-plan.md (milestone M3, section "Port conventions").
The state ψ : QuantumState (ι × ι) becomes a symmetric model S : SymModel 𝔓 K, the
placements leftTensor, rightTensor become S.L, S.R, and the lifts
A.toSubMeas.liftLeft, A.toSubMeas.liftRight take the model, A.toSubMeas.liftLeft S. The
vendored normalization hypothesis hψ : ψ.IsNormalized is dropped: it is a theorem of the model
(ev_one_of_isNormalized), used through subMeas_diagMass_le_one. The proof is the vendored
one, the self-adjointness of the placed outcomes coming from IsSelfAdjoint.of_nonneg in place
of positive semidefiniteness of matrices.

The question-level left gap of the switch sandwich:
|∑ₐ ev(Aₐ B Aₐ ⊗ 1) - ∑ₐ ev(Aₐ B ⊗ Aₐ)| ≤ √(qSDD (A ⊗ 1) (1 ⊗ A)) for a projective
sub-measurement A and 0 ≤ B ≤ 1.
