Orlicz-to-tail concentration bridges #
This file contains the first implication proofs from the Orlicz layer to the
tail layer. The proofs use Mathlib's lintegral Markov inequality directly:
the Orlicz predicates are already stated as nonnegative lintegral bounds.

A Psi2Bound gives the exponential-square moment bound with constant 2.
The probability assumption is necessary: Psi2Bound alone does not control the
mass of the underlying measure when the Orlicz integrand vanishes.
Formula reference: the psi_2 Orlicz integrand is
exp ((|X| / K)^2) - 1; adding the probability mass gives the bound for
exp ((|X| / K)^2). See

A Psi1Bound gives the exponential-linear moment bound with constant 2.
The probability assumption is necessary for the same reason as in the psi_2
case: the Orlicz bound controls only the shifted exponential integrand.
Formula reference: the psi_1 Orlicz integrand is
exp (|X| / K) - 1; adding the probability mass gives the bound for
exp (|X| / K). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orlicz_space
The psi_2 Orlicz bound implies the HighDimProb two-sided subGaussian tail
bound with the same scale.
Measurability is kept separate because Psi2Bound is an integral bound
predicate, not a random-variable predicate.
Formula reference: applying Markov's inequality to
exp ((|X| / K)^2) yields a two-sided psi_2 tail
2 * exp (-(t^2 / K^2)); see

The psi_1 Orlicz bound implies the HighDimProb two-sided subExponential tail
bound with the same scale.
Measurability is kept separate for the same reason as in
subGaussianTail_of_psi2Bound.
Formula reference: applying Markov's inequality to exp (|X| / K) yields the
two-sided psi_1 tail 2 * exp (-(t / K)); see
