Add "set print finish"
A user wanted to be able to disable the display of the value when
using "finish" -- but still have the value entered into the value
history in case it was useful later on. Part of the rationale here is
that sometimes the value might be quite large, or expensive to display
(in their case this was compounded by a rogue pretty-printer).
This patch implements this idea.
