Fix PR 20559 - "eval" command and $arg0...$arg9/$argc substitution

It'd be handy to be able to iterate over command arguments in
user-defined commands, in order to support optional arguments
($arg0..$argN).

I thought I could make it work with "eval", but alas, it doesn't work
currently.  E.g., with:

 define test
   set $i = 0
   while $i < $argc
     eval "print $arg%d", $i
     set $i = $i + 1
   end
 end

we get:

 (gdb) test 1
 $1 = void
 (gdb) test 1 2 3
 $2 = void
 $3 = void
 $4 = void
 (gdb)

The problem is that "eval" doesn't do user-defined command arguments
substitution after expanding its own argument.  This patch fixes that,
which makes the example above work:

 (gdb) test 1
 $1 = 1
 (gdb) test 1 2 3
 $2 = 1
 $3 = 2
 $4 = 3
 (gdb)

New test included, similar the above, but also exercises expanding
$argc.

I think this is likely to simplify many scripts out there, so I'm
adding an example to the manual and mentioning it in NEWS as well.
