Trace-nilpotency criterion
This PR proves that over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, given subspaces

This PR: Prove the trace-nilpotency criterion over algebraically closed fields. Uses Jordan–Chevalley decomposition, Lagrange interpolation.
Remove the algebraic closure assumption by scalar extension.
Prove Cartan's criterion by Engel's theorem + PR 2. This is the easiest out of the three steps.
