added special Q-Register ":" for accessing dot
* We cannot call it "." since that introduces a local register
and we don't want to add an unnecessary syntactic exception.
* Allows the idiom [: ... ]: to temporarily move around.
Also, you can now write ^E\: without having to store dot in a register first.
* In the future we might add an ^E register as well for byte offsets.
However, there are much fewer useful applications.
* Of course, you can now also write nU: instead of nJ, Q: instead of "." and
n%: instead of "nC.". However it's all not really useful.
