Provide a standardized way of dealing with variables

      In order to support a number of use cases, we need a way to define variables that can be accessed across different steps blocks.

      As a talking point, here's what someone was trying to do:

      pipeline {
        agent {
          node label: 'master'
        }
        stages {
          stage('Allocate workspace') {
            steps {
              script {
                def extWorkspace = exwsAllocate 'diskpool1'
              }
            }
          }
          stage('Build') {
            steps {
              parallel(
                "a": {
                  node(label: 'a') {
                    exws (extWorkspace) {
                      sh 'ls -la'
                    }
                  }
                },
                "b": {
                  node(label: 'b') {
                    exws (extWorkspace) {
                      sh 'ls -la'
                    }
                  }
                }
              )
            }
          }
        }
      }
