Uniqueness of the continuous functional calculus

Let s : Set 𝕜 be compact where 𝕜 is either ℝ or ℂ. By the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, the (star) subalgebra generated by polynomial functions on s is dense in C(s, 𝕜). Moreover, this star subalgebra is generated by X : 𝕜[X] (i.e., ContinuousMap.restrict s (.id 𝕜)) alone. Consequently, any continuous star 𝕜-algebra homomorphism with domain C(s, 𝕜), is uniquely determined by its value on X : 𝕜[X].

The same is true for 𝕜 := ℝ≥0, so long as the algebra A is an ℝ-algebra, which we establish by upgrading a map C((s : Set ℝ≥0), ℝ≥0) →⋆ₐ[ℝ≥0] A to C(((↑) '' s : Set ℝ), ℝ) →⋆ₐ[ℝ] A in the natural way, and then applying the uniqueness for ℝ-algebra homomorphisms.

This is the reason the UniqueContinuousFunctionalCalculus class exists in the first place, as opposed to simply appealing directly to Stone-Weierstrass to prove StarAlgHom.ext_continuousMap.
