Adds method call support for all functions in the patch, but it cannot
be fully ported due to missing tests for:
- getcwd(): requires chdir() and Test_chdir_func() from v8.1.1291.
Note that the method call tests for getreg() and getregtype() were
removed in v8.2.1547, which has already been ported, but doesn't seem to
have been replaced with a new test...
This patch also makes getchangelist()'s argument optional (defaults to
the current buffer).
eval.txt includes a typo for gettabwinvar(), which is fixed in
v8.1.1952.
Problem: The getftype() test may fail for char devices if the file
disappeared in between the listing and the getftype() call.
Solution: Ignore empty result. (Ozaki Kiichi, closesvim/vim#3360)

Problem: Test_existent_file() fails on some file systems.
Solution: Run the test again with a sleep when the test fails without a
sleep. (James McCoy, closesvim/vim#1984)

Problem: On MS-Windows large files (> 2Gbyte) cause problems.
Solution: Use "off_T" instead of "off_t". Use "stat_T" instead of "struct
stat". Use 64 bit system functions if available. (Ken Takata)

Only the off_T changes are relevant, since all the "struct stat" usage
is abstracted by libuv.
