fc fix

fc fix

[Peter Stephenson]

This fixes another long-standing bug, that the fc builtin, often in
the guise of the r command, can't be used in command substitution.
With foo=$(r), you get nothing in $foo; the previous command is simply
listed to stderr.  It is never even re-executed.  The problem is that
fc puts the commands it has dug up straight into the main input loop,
which doesn't get invoked again until the top-level interactive loop
re-executes.

I've taken the path of least resistance, simply invoking the main loop
to execute the command, which involved modifying it so that it will
input just one line (ranges of history lines are still OK, since they
are pushed onto the input stack in one go).  I don't think there's
much point in anything more subtle, since the point of fc is exactly
that it's bound up with the history mechanism just as reading a line
interactively is.

It's still different from ksh in one respect, that the r executed in a
subshell doesn't go into the history list.  This is just the usual
difference:  ksh keeps its entries in a file, while zsh stores it
internally so it doesn't reappear in the parent shell.
