piegames abb8ad29c0 repl: Always use parser, allow trailing ; in assignments
We now properly shell out to the parser instead of hacking stuff
together with a regex. Stuff we get for free by doing this:

- Optional trailing semicolon
- Declaring nested attribute sets
- String identifiers, and future proofing for eventual grammar
improvements to identifiers
- Dynamic attributes

Type :? for help.
nix-repl> foo = 5
Added foo.
nix-repl> foo = 10
Updated foo.
Optional semicolon at the end, allow setting multiple variables in one line
nix-repl> foo = 2;
Updated foo.
nix-repl> foo = 2; bar = 3;
Updated foo.
Added bar.
String identifiers work
nix-repl> "silly name" = null
Added "silly name".
Attrset syntax works, but without dynamic attrs or merging
nix-repl> foo.bar = "baz"
Updated foo.
nix-repl> foo
{ bar = "baz"; }
nix-repl> foo."this works" = 42
Updated foo.
nix-repl> foo
{ "this works" = 42; }
nix-repl> foo.bar = "baz"; foo.more = "error"
error: attribute 'foo' already defined at «string»:1:18

nix-repl> ${foo} = 10
