Extracted from #617, which also carried unrelated docstring changes.

example : ContinuousOn (fun x:ℝ ↦ 1/x) (Icc 0 1) was false, so the sorry was unprovable: with Lean's 1/0 = 0 the function is discontinuous at 0 within Icc 0 1. Negating it matches the exercise's intent — the point of Exercise 11.5.1 is that Corollary 11.5.2 does not apply, and that 1/x is not Riemann integrable there either.

Also adds the Exercise 11.5.1 docstring label to both parts, which they lacked.

Credit to @Chessing234, who spotted this in #617.

`fun x ↦ 1/x` is not continuous on `Icc 0 1`: with Lean's `1/0 = 0`, the
function fails to be continuous at `0` within the interval, so the stated
`ContinuousOn` goal was false and the `sorry` unprovable. Negate it, matching
the exercise's intent that Corollary 11.5.2 does not apply here.

Also label both parts as Exercise 11.5.1, which they previously lacked.

Withdrawing — this fix already landed on main via #613 (commit be2e4de). I opened this against a stale local checkout and didn't notice it was already fixed.
