516 object vs variable

[cknuepfer]

Closes #516

Use the following conceptualisation:

1. object: everything that exists in R,
2. name (symbol): reference to an objects,
3. value: result of evaluating an expression.

Clarify <- as assignment of an object (the value of the result of evaluation the LHS) to a name (RHS).

I also checked the other episodes if something depends on the introduced concepts. But I could not find anything which has to be changed.
