The strongly continuous unitary group generated by a real spectral measure
Given `μS : WOTSpectralMeasure ℝ H`, exponentiating the bounded multiplier `x ↦ exp(itx)` against `μS` (via `boundedIntegral`, `BoundedIntegral.lean`) produces, for each real `t`, a unitary `expIntegral μS t = exp(itT) : H →WOT[ℂ] H` — "the unitary group generated by `μS`'s self-adjoint operator", without ever needing to construct the (generally unbounded) operator `T` itself. The group law `expIntegral μS (t + s) = expIntegral μS t * expIntegral μS s` follows from `boundedIntegral_mul` and `exp(i(t+s)x) = exp(itx)·exp(isx)`; strong continuity in `t` follows from the vector-state norm-square identity (`boundedIntegral_norm_sq_eq_integral`) and dominated convergence.
This packages exactly the representation-level half of Stone's theorem — "a (bounded, exponential) spectral integral gives rise to a strongly continuous one-parameter unitary group" — as `StrongUnitaryOneParameterGroup` and `expUnitaryGroup`. The converse direction (every strongly continuous one-parameter unitary group arises this way, from the spectral measure of its generator) is the remaining content of Stone's theorem; it needs the unbounded spectral theorem itself to produce the generator's spectral measure in the first place, and is not built here.
