Masterscope should be able to find Common Lisp "places" (and structures) #2234

Description

@hjellinek

I'd like to be able to ask Masterscope to show me uses of "places," as described in CLtL2 (look up setf).

For instance, assume I have analyzed code that includes things like

(CL:SETF (\\HTML-X-POSITION DATA) (\\HTML-LEFT-MARGIN DATA))

It would be great if I could say to Masterscope

. show where any sets place \\HTML-X-POSITION

or

. show where any reads place \\HTML-LEFT-MARGIN

or

. show where any accesses place \\HTML-LEFT-MARGIN

or (slightly off-topic) looking for any uses of a structure:

. show where any uses structure HTML-IMAGEDATA

I have to use grep as an alternative.

(The query syntax above is descriptive, not normative: I'd like the capabilities but don't care what exactly I'd need to type to get it.)
