#1605 Redirection causes brace matching to not complete with bash script

[James Toebes]

Using Notepad++ 6.6.3. In the following code segment, the <<< on read prevents the { } from matching. <<< is used to read a string into an array.

quick_menu ()
{
declare -a qm_choices
read -a qm_choices <<< "$2"
return $?
}

Missing handling for <<< operator. Once <<< is handled as an operator, brace matching should work again. I guess it came in bash version >=3, I prepared test cases a long time ago using bash version 2.x. I will take a look at this over the weekend.

My bad, it is already an operator, heh heh. I see it in my test cases but did limited fold testing... :-P Anyway, here is the patch. The patch looks more complicated than merely an extra '<<<' test because at the next iteration I needed to avoid matching the 2nd and 3rd '<' as a '<<'.
