   Same bugfix for tables;
   - 4 'X' sto <[ X ]> returns <[ X ]> in both interpreted and compiled mode.

   complex objects like expressions, lists or tables;
   - major bug is fixed in formateur(). When INT64_MIN was pushed into stack,
   internal value was good but RPL/2 was not able to correctly display
   this value. This bug comes from ABS as ABS(INT64_MIN) cannot be represented
