PATCH: 3.1.5-pws-8: setting duplicate elements of assoc array



I just discovered:

% typeset -A newhash
% newhash=(a 1 a 2)
<SPLAT!>

This is because createparam() now returns NULL when the parameter already
exists.  The easiest fix is to allow the later value to override the
former.

While doing this, I discovered two other bugs which I haven't fixed:

1)
% __foo() { local list; list=(a b); complist -y '$list' -k list; }
% defcomp __foo foo
% foo ^D
<random junk printed>

I don't know if it's supposed to work when list is about to go out of
scope, and there's an easy workaround `-y "($list)"' (provided $list
doesn't have spaces or commas --- which it actually does in the case I was
trying, so I seem to be stuck), but it shouldn't print what it did.

2)
% print ${foo%% 
                ^ cursor here after space, hit tab, gives
% print ${foo%% BUG: inbrace == '{' in paramsubst()
BUG: inbrace == '{' in paramsubst()
% print ${foo%%
