new: `nim -e:cmd` to run a command directly; also fixes #15731 (#15687)
* new: `nim -i cmd` * rename -i to -e (for eval); consistent with majority of other programing languages * `nim e -e:cmd` now works; bugfix: `echo cmd | nim e -` now works * honor --betterRun * address comments * --eval alias for -e (replaces undocumented --eval which was a noop) * --eval now defaults to e (nimscript) instead of r * address comment: remove -e, only keep --eval * address comment * fixup * Update compiler/nimconf.nim Co-authored-by: Andreas Rumpf <rumpf_a@web.de>
