This PR implements the first part of Proposal 14 (iteration 1) from the Symbol Proposals document. It adds inter as an alternative for sect. Eventually, sect should be deprecated, and later removed. For more context, see the discussion on Discord.

For now, there is no infrastructure to deprecate symbols in Codex, nor is there a way to deprecate a constant in Typst. This makes it impossible to deprecate sect immediately. However, since sect is a commonly used symbol, I believe the sooner we introduce its new name, the better.

Since this PR assumes the future removal of a symbol (sect) and a variant (integral.sect), and even though this was already discussed on Discord, cc. @laurmaedje.

Only adds `inter`, does not remove `sect`.

We should probably wait for #19 to be closed before merging this PR.
