local must support multiple variables and assignment

All Bourne-type shells in Debian support localizing multiple variables
in one command, and all except posh support assignment.  Supporting
multiple variables and assignment brings the behavior of local in line
with export and readonly.  Permit /bin/sh scripts to assume that local
can take multiple variables and assignment.

Closes: Bug#473019
