interpreter: correct semantics of special var args.
In this patch we eliminate the special operator sys:with-dyn-rebinds, and implement correct semantics for dynamically scoped variables that occur in argument lists. * eval.c (with_dyn_rebinds_s): Symbol variable removed. (bind_args): Handle special variables dynamically: for each symbol that appears, check whether it is a special and treat accordingly by allocating a new dynamic environment if necessary, and binding in that environment. This adds overhead, which is why I moved away from this approach in the past. But now that there is a compiler, overhead in the interpreter matters less. Correct semantics is more important. (expand_params): Greatly simplified for not having to wrap the sys:with-dyn-rebinds operator around the body. (funcall_interp): Since bind_args can now extend the dynamic environment, it is necessary to save and restore dyn_env around it. Another call to bind_args occurs in op_catch; that already saves and restores dyn_env. (op_with_dyn_rebinds): Static function removed. (do_expand): with-dyn-rebinds-s case removed. (eval_init): Removed interning of sys:with-dyn-rebinds symbol and registration of special op. * protsym.c: Regenerated. * compiler.tl (compiler compile): Remove case which handles sys:with-dyn-rebinds.
