The place at infinity and its primes in finite extensions #
This file realizes the place at infinity of K(X) as an honest height-one
prime. Its base ring is the integer ring of RatFunc.inftyValuation; this is
a discrete valuation ring with uniformizer X⁻¹. The resulting
fractional-ideal order is proved to equal the previously defined
ratFuncInfinityOrder = -intDegree.
For a finite separable extension L / K(X), the integral closure of the
infinity valuation ring is Dedekind and finite over the base. The final
theorem specializes the finite-extension norm/count formula to the unique
base prime, producing the residue-degree-weighted sum over all primes above
infinity.

The height-one valuation is unchanged by the canonical identification of
the fraction field of the infinity valuation ring with K(X).
The height-one-prime order on the infinity valuation ring agrees with
the usual rational-function order -intDegree.
In the canonical FractionRing model used by the norm/count theorem, the
height-one-prime count still equals the ordinary rational-function order at
infinity after applying the canonical field equivalence.
