Drilling into computations on the Mu shell

This was one of the more difficult things I've built, and yet all I've gotten working so far is some rudimentary tokenization. The reason is one little feature.. well, take a look for yourself.

Screenshot of the Mu computer running within Qemu, showing a command typed in in cyan, results in grey and an overview (trace) of the computation performed in blue.

As always, built all the way up from machine code, and designed primarily to be easy to build, easy to run, comprehensible to others. Also this time with lots of tests.
