Thanks for the report.  This patch should fix it.

Subject: parser: Fix parameter expansion inside inner double quotes

The parsing of parameter expansion inside inner double quotes
breaks because we never look for ENDVAR while innerdq is true.

	echo "${x#"${x+''}"''}

This patch fixes it by pushing the syntax stack if innerdq is
true and we enter a new parameter expansion.

This patch also fixes a corner case where a bad substitution error
occurs within arithmetic expansion.

Fixes: ab1cecb40478 (" parser: Add syntax stack for recursive...")
