This patch add functionality to use memory addresses and environment variables
in
expressions. This increases the power of expressions substantially
It adheres to the standard convemtions: memory addresses can be given in the
format
*address (e.g. *1000), environment variables as $this_var.
environment variables are not processed recursively but can contain both
constants
and memory addresses.
Rationale for this change is that it allows masking off bits from a byte that is
obtained by reading data from e.g. i2c.

If recursive environment vars is desired: this can be added easily by changing
the
if statement into a while statement.
I figured that would be somewhat over the top though (and, unless you take
special precautions you can run into an endless loop if an env var contains
its own name.
If it is desired, please let me know and I happily will add it.
And a snippet from the test log:
=> mm.b 1000
00001000: de ? 12
00001001: ad ? 34
00001002: be ? 56
00001003: ef ? 78
00001004: de ?
00001005: ad ? .
=> setexpr aap 3 + *1000
=> echo $aap
1234567b
=> setexpr.b aap 3 + *1000
=> echo $aap
15
=> setexpr.w nut $aap + *1000
=> echo $nut
