New convenience functions in seq.el

Functions to access the first or all but the first elements of
sequences have been repeatedly asked for (the last occurrence being
https://github.com/NicolasPetton/seq.el/issues/9).

* lisp/emacs-lisp/seq.el (seq-first, seq-rest): New functions.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/seq-tests.el (test-seq-first, test-seq-rest):
New tests for seq-first and seq-rest.
