It turns out that the Classes library was depending on WildCat, Cubical, Modalities, Homotopy.Suspension, etc, all because it uses some unicode symbols defined in Utf8.v. I separated that small subset into a new file Utf8Minimal.v, which greatly reduces the dependencies and speeds up a parallel build by about 2%. I also reduced a few other dependencies. I noticed these because so much of the library was getting rebuilt when WildCat/Induced.v was changed.
The commits are independent, except that the fourth one depends on the third one.
