[Ecls-list] Important bug fix in LOAD.

Two important fixes:
+ LOAD no longer binds *STANDARD-INPUT* to the file being read. That was
wrong, AFAIK.
+ CLEAR-INPUT now works with interactive streams (i.e. *STANDARD-INPUT, etc).
This means that you can now type (READ-LINE) at the toplevel and expect a line
being read. Formerly, the #\Newline character of the previosly input line
would remain in the buffer and (READ-LINE) would return false.
For instance, before the fix:
> (READ-LINE)
""
> (READ-LINE) HOLA
" HOLA"
After the fix
> (READ-LINE)
USER TYPES SOMETHING
"USER TYPES SOMETHING"
> (READ-LINE) HOLA
"HOLA"
Thanks, Andrew, for pointing this out!
Best regards,
Juanjo
