Virgil Dupras 80ab395823 forth: Simplify execution model 
Change the mainloop so that words are executed immediately after they're read.
This greatly simplifies execution model and allow the "DEFINE" word to become
an IMMEDIATE and stop its "copy from compiled words" scheme.

The downside to this is that flow control words no longer work when being used
directly in the input buffer. They only work as part of a definition.

It also broke "RECURSE", but I've replaced it with "BEGIN" and "AGAIN".

Another effect of this change is that definitions can now span multiple lines.

All in all, it feels good to get rid of that COMPBUF...
