This PR adds Fitting's theorem (1938): the join of two normal nilpotent subgroups of any group is nilpotent. Foundational structural result that justifies talking about the maximal normal nilpotent subgroup of a finite group (the Fitting subgroup F(G)), basic in CFSG local analysis through F(G) and the generalised Fitting subgroup F*(G) = F(G)·E(G) (Bender 1971).

Uses Mathlib's Group.IsNilpotent and the subgroup lattice — no new definitions.
