seb 1020fcbb60 Reimport lang/otcl as lang/tcl-otcl to follow established practices.
Do various otcl -> tcl[-/]otcl substitutions along the way.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

OTcl, short for MIT Object Tcl, is an extension to Tcl/Tk for
object-oriented programming. It shouldn't be confused with the IXI
Object Tcl extension by Dean Sheenan.
Some of OTcl's features as compared to alternatives are:
* designed to be dynamically extensible, like Tcl, from the ground
up
* builds on Tcl syntax and concepts rather than importing another
language
* compact yet powerful object programming system (draws on CLOS,
Smalltalk, and Self)
* fairly portable implementation (2000 lines of C, without core
hacks)
