* doc/tcltest.n: Restored the [Eval] proc to replace

        * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl:  the [::puts] command when either the
        -output or -error option for [test] is in use, in order to capture
        data written to the output or error channels for comparison against
        what is expected.  This is easier to document and agrees better with
        most user expectations than the previous attempt to replace [puts]
        only in the caller's namespace.  Documentation made more precise on
        the subject.  [Bug 706359]
