Web Inspector: Debugger should not mutate variable when hovering mouse over ++n expression

[Joseph Pecoraro]

* SUMMARY
When debugging javascript paused in the debugger, hovering over a line of the form ++n actually mutates the value of n. n++ does not have this behavior.

* TEST
<script type="text/javascript">
function test() {
    debugger;
    var n = 0;
    console.log(n);
    // Hover over next line. n shouldn't change
    n++;
    console.log(n);
    // Hover over next line. n changes but shouldn't
    ++n;
    console.log(n);
}
document.onload = test();
</script>

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Inspect test case
2. Reload or type test() into the console
3. Test hovering over n++ and see it doesn't mutate
4. Test hovering over ++n and see that it mutates n every time you hover over it

What about --?

Doh! Tim also caught other operators, like:

    n+=n;

I'll put up another patch.
