Bug-fix release 1.16.4.1

[tabemann]

This release:

• adds validation to to and +to so they raise an exception if the user attempts to apply them to something other than a local variable or value, where previously if the user applied them to such a hardfault would likely occur at runtime.
• fixes a bug in extra/rp_common/picocalc_term_common.fs where to was applied to something other than a local variable or value in an uncommon code path.

It was really a small release motivated by a bug I had found in TO and +TO where they would not fail if you tried to use them with something other than a local or value but instead they would generate garbage code that would crash when executed. If anything, what I forgot to mention in the release notice was that I added TURTLE::FGETXY and TURTLE::FSETXY to enable more fine-grained setting of the Turtle position, a Lindenmayer system DSL, and a number of demos including ones of L-systems, as I was in a hurry to get the fix out the door.

Hi Travis, it is not the size of the bug you fix or the feature you implement, which counts in the first place. It is your constant improvement and constant work of and at zeptoforth. (choosing the correct english prepositions is more on the weaker side of my already weak english...;) I know a LOT of projects on github with bazillions of unsolved or uncommented issues and tons of pull requests. But not you and not Zeptoforth. That is, what counts! Cheers! Meino
