Add hack for supporting help in Firefox

kgryte · kgryte · commit 178337f768de · 2017-07-13T15:51:34.000+01:00
The Firefox console includes a function aliases as `help`. This
alias is read-only, and, thus, the REPL `help()` function is not
available. As a workaround, we need to use another alias. The
least painful solution seemed to be adding an underscore prefix,
even though is not optimal. Browsers. *sigh*
