A common issue for users is that the behaviour of the various repl
commands are not documented anywhere despite some of them having complex
behaviour (e.g. `:set` which accepts a specific set of options). This
implements the ability to call `:?|:h|:help` on repl commands to request
detailed help for a specific repl command, while preserving the
behaviour that calling the help command without any arguments prints the
general help text.
Generic help is defined as the first line of the help text.
Detailed help is defined as the entire help text.
This means that `:help :t`, for example, does not error (there is no
detailed help) but instead just prints the single line of help text.
* [ repl ] Use unlines for detailed help (see #2087)
Ideally, the lines affected should be multiline strings. But for some
arcane reason, newlines in those get swallowed in Nix and Windows
**CI** only Ô.o
This was already documented in issue #2087.

* Banners for test pools
* Summary with the list of failing tests at the end
* Option to write the list of failing tests to a file
* Option to read the list of tests to run from a file
* Using these two latest features to add a new make target to rerun precisely the tests that failed last time
The hack (optimisation?) to normalise integer literals when below some
threshold is fine on the RHS, but on the LHS causes problems since we
need them in normal form for pattern matching. Fixes#112
We also need to separate building the runtests binary from running the
tests, because runtests refers to the boostrap libraries, and the tests
refer to the newly built libraries.
This worked locally, using inconsistent TTC versions for the bootstrap
version and new version, but let's see what it does on a clean machine
* Ignore build artifacts in 'tests' directory
* Remove unused variables in makefiles
* Add 'bootstrap-clean' rule to delete build artifacts from 'bootstrap' directory
* Add 'distclean' rule to delete all build artifacts from the source tree
