Title: Backtick quotes / command output substitution

These changes provide a third type of quote, backtick quotes, with the usual run-that-command-and-substitute-its-output semantics.

The backtick quoted string mechanism can be used anywhere single or double quoted strings can be used, on the right side of an '=' assignment, but even for include/require path "computation".

Overly long command output is silently truncated.

Contrary to PHP, but identical to shell behaviour, a single trailing newline in command output is "eaten".
