Summary description:  Expandable token list operations

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 `etl` provides expandable token list operations for which `expl3`'s `l3tl`
 only has unexpandable variants. These expandable versions are typically
 slower than the unexpandable code. Unlike the `l3tl` versions the functions
 in this module might contain braces and macro parameter tokens in their arguments,
 but as a drawback they can't distinguish some tokens and don't consider
 the character code of group-begin and group-end tokens.

 Additionally a general map to token lists is provided, modelled after the
 `expl3` internal `__tl_act:NNNn` but with additional features.
