Already working, but some interface functions still not implemented (Still needs to figure out some concepts of parser/lex of mk and their relation to shell syntaxes).

Now, we can create mk files like:

MKSHELL=$HOME/nashroot/bin/nash
all:V:
        var targets = ("cmd/nash" "cmd/nashfmt")
        for t in $targets {
                chdir($t)
                mk
        }

got a bug in some variables replacements using nash, like ${VARNAME:A%B=C%D}. Will need to investigate.

Fixes 9fans#122, 9fans#140.

As reported in 9fans#122, `file:1:1` moves to the end of the file,
and `file:1:2` fails with “address out of range”.

I’ll use file:2:3 as an example so we can tell the line and column number apart.

What’s happening is this:
plumb/basic matches `2:3` using twocolonaddr (from plumb/fileaddr),
then sets addr to `2-#1+#3`
(the 1 is constant and was introduced because column numbers are 1-based).
Acme interprets this in three steps:

1. find the range (q0, q1) that contains line 2
2. create the range (q2, q2) where q2 = q0 - 1
3. create the range (q3, q3) where q3 = q2 + 3

The second step has a branch where if q0 == 0 and 1 > 0
(remember that 1 is constant and comes form plumb/basic),
q0 is set to the end of the file.
This makes addressing things at the end of the file easier.

The problem then is that if we select line 1,
which starts at the beginning of the file,
q0 is always 0 and the branch in step 2) will always be used.
`1:1` is interpreted as `1-#1+#1` which starts at 0, wraps around to the end of the file, then moves 1 character backwards and then forwards again, ending at the end of the file.
`1:2` is interpretes as `1-#1+#2` which starts at 0, wraps around to the end od the file, then moves 1 character backwards and tries moving 2 characters forwards beyond the end of the file, resulting in the out of range error.

In 9fans#140 @rsc proposed transforming `:X:Y` into `:X-#0+#Y-#1` instead since that
avoids wrapping around by not moving backwards at first.
This change modifies `plumb/basic` to do that.
