Structural proof guide

A dividing prime power has exponent at most the nonzero dividend.

Direct prerequisites: prime_power_exponent_le, divisor_le_nonzero, le_trans. The authored body proceeds by case analysis (2), intermediate claims (2).

Formal native tactic body

Dependencies are hypotheses of the historical Alpha-v12 body receipt. The complete historical Alpha-v18 proof bundle independently checks every dependency; current Alpha v25 preserves that checked theorem use without changing Stable membership.
