ActionGetVariable does the following:

  1. Pops a name off the stack, a string that names is the variable to get.
  2. Pushes the value of the variable to the stack. A variable in another execution context can be referenced by prefixing the variable name with the target path and a colon. For example: /A/B:FOO references variable FOO in a movie clip with a target path of /A/B.
