Summary: OS Token IFF() to accept any JEP Boolean functions

Initial Comment:
This is a request specifically to allow the token IFF to work with JEP 
Boolean formulas. There are way too many FOR statements being used as 
IIF statements because IIF is too limiting.

In more general terms it would be good to make JEP available in the OS 
code across the board, the math you can do in it now is limited.

I've opened another FREQ for a boolean pre() function which if 
implemented with this FREQ would allow IFF to use any PRExxx tag.

While we may have to keep the old syntax around for a while (for
homebrew), I'd prefer the first: IIF(<JEP boolean>). Depreciate the
other syntax, and ditch it completely in the future. Same for the rest
of the OS tokens that take math, replace the very limited math with JEP.
