#352: Review of andmap & ormap procedures in Unit Library

 andmap currently returns #t if all invocations of its map procedure return
 a true value. This is similar to the every procedure in SRFI-1, but not
 quite as useful, because at least the every procedure returns the final
 value on success. andmap could be made most useful by returning the list
 of the results after map, which is, of course, the same as #t.  I think
 that this is what the name 'andmap' would imply.  I'm thinking of and-let*
 and how it would generate a useful result the same as let* does.

 ormap seems to be identical to the 'any' procedure in SRFI-1.
