Add support for for-loop
The semantics is similar to the C++11 range-based for: list = 1 2 3 for i: $list print $i Note that there is no scoping of any kind for the loop variable ('i' in the above example). See tests/loop/for.test for some examples/ideas. In the future the plan is to also support more general while-loop as well as break and continue.
