Summary: [::tcl::prefix] not exported

Initial Comment:

I'm not a big fan of the decision
to add the new command from TIP 195
as [::tcl::prefix] as opposed to either
[::prefix] or [::string prefix]...

...but if we're going to create the
new command in the ::tcl namespace,
at least we need to [namespace export]
it so that it's clear that code external
to Tcl is intended to use it.
