Add :repl/quit and :exit gestures to the REPL

^D (EOF) exits cleanly in canonical mode but some terminals and editors
don't deliver it, leaving the user stuck. Accepting :repl/quit or :exit
as the first form of a line gives a reliable keyword exit that works
everywhere. The check parses the line with read-string rather than
checking the evaluated value, so a nested value that happens to print
as the keyword can't trigger an exit.
