Description changed by nborie:

Old description:

> TransitiveGroup are already in Sage and work only if you have the right
> database installed. As I offen test systematicly over all transitive
> groups, I will be happy to get this number in Sage.

> {{{
> sage: TransitiveGroup(7,7)
> Transitive group number 7 of degree 7
> sage: TransitiveGroup(7,8)
> verbose 0 (846: permgroup_named.py, __init__) Warning: Computing with

>
> I had also the set of TransitiveGroups() (The whole Gap database as a set

New description:

 depend on #8524

 The goal of this patch is implement a proper infinite set of category
 InfiniteEnumeratedSet of transitive groups. This set is built as a
 disjoint union of Finite Enumerated Sets of all set of Transitive groups
 of a given degree.

 This allows a user to do:
 {{{
 for G in TransitiveGroups(i):
     any_test(G)  # any test over all transitive groups of a given degree

 for G in TransitiveGroups():
     other_test(G) # test over all transitive groups
 }}}

 This will requires the optional database_gap.

 As the database of Gap is finite, the enumeration stop with a
 NonImplementedError at degree 30.
