Rename Cong (congruence) to Compat (compatible) #21

R is compatible with structure: R x y -> R (f x) (f y) for all x, y and f (function symbol in the algebra/structure).

R is a congruence: R is an equivalence relation that is compatible.

Most of our translation relations are not equivalence relations, so the word congruence is not really applicable in general.
