tracef should not emit a newline at the end

There should be some way to emit a string without a newline, and looks like tracef is the answer if it didn't emit the final newline. See #611

In Forth it's idiomatic to emit lines like:

: foo ." 1+2=" 1 2 + . cr ;

With the current tracef behaviour it's inconvenient to implement that, since it would require buffering until a cr is performed.

Yeah, i would prefer to have both versions as one without a newline would facilitate printing various stuff in the same line (in my case, cause I like creating toy Langs, so i would have to implement string buffers first if i would like to print stuff that is more complex). But when i asked why it was this way, @aduros said on discord:
"Yeah, the intent was to have a drop in replacement for console.log() for debugging, and not fully expose stdout"

So i guess it is intended to not support this :/

Maybe a SYSTEM_FLAG to opt-in as I suggested in #611 (comment)

it is possible tho to use ANSI control codes to print on the line above, move the cursor, clear the terminal...

came pretty handy on debugging real time information to me
