[issue44603] REPL: exit when the user types exit instead of asking them to explicitly type exit()

[Paul Ganssle]

I'm +1 for Pablo's approach. That's approximately what I meant by "special-case it in the REPL layer" anyway.

Are there any downsides to doing it this way? It seems tightly scoped and with minimal overhead.
