When cloning a theory and subtituting a sub-theory by
some other one, it is now possible to apply renamings
on the target sub-theory.
The syntax is:
```
clone T ... with theory T <- U { rename ... }
```
This allows to substitute one theory by some other
one that got some of its components renamed by a
previous clone.
For example:
```
abstract theory Word.
op foo_XX = ...
end Word.
clone Word as W16 rename "_XX" as "_16".
abstract theory UseWord.
clone Word as W.
end UseWord.
clone UseWord as UseWord16 with
theory W <- W16 { rename "_XX" as "_16" }.
```
