Allow multiple levels of breakpoint command with options #620

Description

Your proposal

Allow nesting commands like this:

debugger(do: "break Foo#initialize do: (watch @ivar do: pp self)")

Or even:

debugger(do: {
  "break Foo#initialize" => {
    do: { "watch @ivar" => { do: "pp self" } }
  },
  "catch MyError" => { do: "bt 20" }
})

This will allow users to write a simple script, place it at one place (e.g. a Rails controller), and execute the entire debugging process without any automatically.

Right now it's not possible because the debugger assumes do: or pre: options only have 1 level of action.
