A definition of a rowmaker variable.

It consists of a name and a python expression, including function calls. The variables are entered into the input row coming from the grammar.

var elements are evaluated before apply elements, in the sequence they are in the RD. You can refer to keys defined by vars already evaluated in the usual @key manner.
