object ->initialise_new_slot: new=variable

Part of saved-object conversion (see source_sink<-object). Called when -while loading an instance from a file-, the current definition of the class has a new instance variable (compared to when the instance was saved to file using object->save_in_file). The argument is the new variable object from the class. May be used to initialise the new slot to some sensible value.
