METRON-711 STELLAR SHELL Do not set variables when exceptions are thrown
from assignment.
This PR changes the behavior of the Stellar Shell such that when doing
variable assignments ( VAR := EXPRESSION ) that result in an exception ( foo :=
TO_UPPER(IN) ) do not continue to set / create foo after catching the exception.
## Testing
- Start the stellar shell
- Execute a statement that may throw an exception, the easiest is an
invalid expression like
```bash
> foo := TO_UPPER(IN)
```
- Verify that there is a statement that the variable will not be set
- Verify that the exception and stack is printed
- Verify that the variable was not in fact set:
```bash
> %vars
```
Also, test creating a variable, and that it is not modified
```bash
> bar := 'one'
> bar := TO_UPPER(IN)
> bar
> %vars
```

Do not set variables when exceptions are thrown from assignment.
Also remove executeStellar which is not required, if it doesn't eat the
exception
