    > @ottobackwards : This is opt-in for the resolvers. The 
MapVariableResolver does NOT support update, so there is no change to 
Enrichment, Parsers, Profile, and Shell ( beyond what has been mentioned ).
    
    If this PR does not change Parsers, Enrichment, Profiler, and the REPL, 
then what does it change?  Where can I use assignment based on this PR?
    
    Does this just give us the 'capability' to add assignment to each of those? 
 We would then need to change the `VariableResolver`s used in each of those 
areas to use the assignment as you've implemented it here?

> Add support for =, +=, -=, *=, /= for variables in stellar.
> foo = 5  returns 5 AND sets foo to 5 if the VariableResolver supports it.
> The shell should be changed to assign variables using this syntax, because 
> exposing the left side to stellar allows catching errors for invalid keywords 
> in left side.
