Implements the enhancement requested in #134. consLazy takes a head value and a Lazy<LazyList<'T>> tail, providing a more efficient alternative to consDelayed when a Lazy value is already available. Example use: let rec ones: LazyList<int> = LazyList.consLazy 1 (lazy ones) Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Implements the enhancement requested in #134.
Summary
LazyList.consDelayedacceptsunit -> LazyList<'T>(a thunk). When aLazy(LazyList<'T)>value is already available, wrapping it infun () -> tail.Valueworks but is unnecessarily wasteful — it allocates an extra closure and forgoes .NET's built-inLazycaching.consLazyprovides the direct construction:Usage example (infinite list of 1s, as shown in #134):
Implementation
The outer
lzykeeps the head cell lazy until the list is consumed.l.Valueis the standard .NETLazy(T)evaluation, which caches the result and is evaluated at most once.Changes

✅ All 710 tests pass (
