[swift-evolution] SetAlgebra naming update

[Xiaodi Wu]

Much improved, IMO. A few thoughts:
* typo in "formSymmetricDifference"
* I don't know about the preposition "from" in "form symmetric difference
from" (also, inconsistent, because you don't have "form union with")
* "form" is fine, but scans similarly to "from" when reading quickly
