execute: retain what the user typed before a tool was invoked
When the user types something at the Execute prompt and then invokes one of the six tools or special functions (that don't take any input), stash the typed string and restore it upon the next invocation of the Execute menu. This way the typed string is not lost when the tool or special function was invoked by accident -- which it likely was, as those tools and functions don't take any input from the prompt. This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66637. Suggested-by: Evgeny Pestov <fsdhfhhf@gmail.com>
