compared to vim.api.|nvim_call_function|, this fixes some typing issues
due to the indirect conversion via the API. float values are preserved
as such (fixes#9389) as well as empty dicts/arrays.
Ref https://github.com/norcalli/nvim.lua for the call syntax
- Rename `meth_pcall`.
- Make `pcall_err` raise an error if the function does not fail.
- Add `vim.pesc()` to treat a string as literal where a Lua pattern is
expected.
Implement lazy loading for vim.submodule, this would be over-engineering
for inspect only, but we expect to use this solution also for more and
larger modules.
Instead of eager-loading during plugin/* sourcing, define runtime
modules such as `vim.inspect` as lazy builtins. Otherwise non-builtin
Lua modules such as `vim.inspect` would not be available during startup
(init.vim, `-c`, `--cmd`, …).
