\TYPE {strip_exists : (term -> goal)}

\SYNOPSIS
Iteratively breaks apart existential quantifications.

\DESCRIBE
{strip_exists "?x1 ... xn. t"} returns {(["x1";...;"xn"],"t")}. Note that
{
   strip_exists(list_mk_exists(["x1";...;"xn"],"t"))
}
\noindent will not return {(["x1";...;"xn"],"t")} if {t} is an existential
quantification.

\FAILURE
Never fails.
