patch 7.4.1102

Problem:    Debugger has no stack backtrace support.
Solution:   Add "backtrace", "frame", "up" and "down" commands. (Alberto
            Fanjul, closes #433)

finish Finish the current script or user function and come
back to debug mode for the command after the one that
sourced or called it.

backtrace Show the call stacktrace for current debugging session.
bt

*>frame*
frame N Goes to N bactrace level. + and - signs make movement
relative. E.g., ":frame +3" goes three frames up.
*>up*
up Goes one level up from call stacktrace.
*>down*
down Goes one level down from call stacktrace.
About the additional commands in debug mode:
- There is no command-line completion for them, you get the completion for the
normal Ex commands only.
- You can shorten them, up to a single character: "c", "n", "s" and "f".
- You can shorten them, up to a single character, unless more then one command
starts with the same letter. "f" stands for "finish", use "fr" for "frame".
- Hitting <CR> will repeat the previous one. When doing another command, this
is reset (because it's not clear what you want to repeat).
- When you want to use the Ex command with the same name, prepend a colon:
":cont", ":next", ":finish" (or shorter).
The backtrace shows the hierarchy of function calls, e.g.:
>bt ~
3 function One[3] ~
2 Two[3] ~
->1 Three[3] ~
0 Four ~
line 1: let four = 4 ~
The "->" points to the current frame. Use "up", "down" and "frame N" to
select another frame.
In the current frame you can evaluate the local function variables. There is
no way to see the command at the current line yet.
