Yeah, throwing errors for bad arguments would also need to be suppressed.

Ok, barring other feedback, I'm going to take my marching orders as "make each slash command active-aware". To keep that sane, I'm probably going to break out each slash command family into it's own static function.
...and here it is.
v24 highlights:
- finally using git format-patch
- all conditional slash commands broken out into their own functions (exec_command_$NAME) , each one tests if it's in an active branch, and if it's not it consumes the same number of parameters, but discards them. comments for each slash-command family were left as-is, may need to be bulked up.
- TAP tests discarded in favor of one ON_EROR_STOP test for invalid \elif placement
- documentation recommending ON_ERROR_STOP removed, because invalid expressions no longer throw off if-endif balance
- documentation updated to reflex that contextually-correct-but-invalid boolean expressions are treated as false
- psql_get_variable has a passthrough void pointer now, but I ended up not needing it. Instead, all slash commands in false blocks either fetch OT_NO_EVAL or OT_WHOLE_LINE options. If I'm missing something, let me know.
