If there were no variable substitutions in a command, then initial
assignments would be misinterpreted as commands, instead of being
skipped
over. This is demonstrated by the following example:

        => foo=bar echo baz

The commit message does not explain why this patch is needed.

This is a bug I noticed while writing some tests of hush.

What shall be the value off foo after this line?

It should be bar. This is an existing difference when compared with
bash. For example, without this patch, we have

        => foo=bar echo $foo
        bar
        => echo $foo
        bar


What will be the output of

foo=bar echo ${foo}

with and without yor patch?

It is the same.

        Unknown command 'foo=bar' - try 'help'
