sets the scope

set to null if the scope becomes "unstable" (i.e. too variable or unknown) so that
variables are compiled in a more evaluative way than just $this->scope['key']

@param mixed $scope a string i.e. "level1.level2" or an array i.e. array("level1", "level2")
@param bool $absolute if true, the scope is set from the top level scope and not from the current scope
@return array the current scope tree
sets the scope
