Summary: declare of abstractions is hiddenly saved in parent patches

Initial Comment:
if a patch containing an abstraction or a child of an
abstraction containing a [declare] object is saved, the patch is saved with a hidden declare line:

#X declare -stdlib extra/list-abs;

but there is no line:

#X obj 8 8 declare -stdlib extra/list-abs;

and therefore no object [declare] appears in the patch, when opening it afterwards.


how to reproduce the problem:

1) create 'abstraction.pd' containing:
     [declare -stdpath  extra/list-abs]
     [list-clip]
   save it

2) create 'patch.pd' containing:
     [abstraction]
     [list-clip]
   save it

3) close and re-open 'patch.pd'
     [list-clip] is instantiated, although there is no
     [declare] visible in the patch.
   opening 'patch.pd' with a text editor shows the
   following line:

   #X declare -stdlib extra/list-abs;


this was tested on 0.42.0test5
