The tricky thing about doing this is maintaining the evaluation result.
If I add a (set! new-parameterization #f) to the end of
splicing-parameterize, then this:

    (let ()
      (splicing-parameterize ([my-param #t])
        42))

...evaluates to #<void> instead of 42. It’s theoretically possible to
figure out if the last form is a definition or an expression, and if
it’s the latter, insert a use of begin0, but this means the final
expression is not called in tail position. This probably isn’t a
problem, though, so maybe it’s still worth it?
