Summary: Add .CLEAR function to AUTO tags

Initial Comment:
How difficult would it be to add .CLEAR functions to the AUTO tags?

Specifically: 
   AUTO:EQUIP
   AUTO:ARMORPROF
   AUTO:SHIELDPROF and
   AUTO:WEAPONPROF

These currently cannot be cleared and being able to do so would 
make implementing the Weapon Groups proficiency variant rule from 
Unearthed Arcana easier.

simple syntax item, but we should still do the spec just in case

OK, here's my limited knowledge of this all...  There's the
plugin.lsttokens.AutoLst class which reads in a AUTO token:

public boolean parse(PObject obj, String value, int anInt) {
	obj.addAutoArray(value);
	return true;
}

The addAutoArray(value) in PObject, doesn't seem to deal
with subtokens?  I can't see where/how it deals with sub
tokens like EQUIP and ARMORPROF etc mentioned above.  I
assume I'm looking in totally the worng place...

James, might need your help on this one - K

when you get back, can you explain what you mean?  sorry, I
know I've been kind of off in the weeds for a few months,
but I'm ready to get this stuff movign again.

I suspect the answer is this:
AUTO is kind of special, and most Tokens do *not* have this
level of sub parsing.

Actually Devon, the AutoLst.parse() method simply adds the
passed in value to the appropriate list, without seeming to
do any parsing of _any_ subtokens

Is that level of sub token parsing done previously to the
call to AutoLst.parse()?  I'm assuming this is 'common' with
all calls to the new token classes.

Right, I've spotted a method that will do the clearing for
us.  I just need to carefully integrate it (as AUTO has
recently been moved to its own plug-in).  Hopefully will
have this done tomorrow.

As agreed I'll see if I can do this - K
