Merge branch 'py/remove-tcloo'

Reduce the Tcl version requirement to 8.5 to allow git-gui to run on
MacOS distributions like High Sierra. While here, fix a potential
variable name collision.

* py/remove-tcloo:
  git-gui: create a new namespace for chord script evaluation
  git-gui: reduce Tcl version requirement from 8.6 to 8.5
