Add commands to conditionally stop a macro or stop a BEGIN / END block within a macro.

Suggest adding two commands similar to the following:

• ExitMacro(); - unconditionally exits the current macro (essentially skips to below the last command)
• ExitCurrentBlock() - unconditionally breaks the current BEGIN / END block skipping to below the next END

Currently the macro writer can handle this by explicitly testing a condition (often done via a dedicated @STORExxx variable).  This becomes complex with larger macros with multiple logic blocks.

  This would be SOOOOO useful. Nested IF's become a total nightmare on larger macros and this would be much better.
