Avoid memory leak in chew
An earlier patch of mine introduced a memory leak in chew. The bug
was that the new "variable" word didn't free the following word. This
patch fixes it by arranging to transfer ownership of the name to the
variable itself.
* doc/chew.c (add_variable): New function, from
add_intrinsic_variable.
(add_intrinsic_variable): Call add_variable.
(compile): Call add_variable.
